David Gray Lyrics

Album: A Century Ends

Shine Lyrics

I can see it in your eyes

what I know in my heart is true

that our love it has faded

like the summer run through

so we'll walk down the shoreline 

one last time together

feel the wind blow our wanderin' hearts 

like a feather

but who knows what's waiting

in the wings of time

dry your eyes

we gotta go where we can shine

Don't be hiding in sorrow

or clinging to the past

with your beauty so precious

and the season so fast

no matter how cold the horizon appear

or how far the first night 

when I held you near

you gotta rise from these ashes 

like a bird of flame

step out of the shadow

we've gotta go where we can shine

For all that we struggle

for all we pretend

it don't come down to nothing 

except love in the end

and ours is a road 

that is strewn with goodbyes

but as it unfolds 

as it all unwinds

remember your soul is the one thing

you can't compromise

take my hand

we're gonna go where we can shine

we're gonna go where we can shine

we're gonna go where we can shine 

(and look, and look)

Through the windows of midnight

moonfoam and silver
