You Shine

From all around, there’s the sound of beating hearts,
But none are beating quite as loud as mine.
And far away, life continues on its course,
While you and I are lost in frozen time.


You shine, you really fill my heart,
You shine like the sun in clear blue skies
You live deep in my very soul,
No one can steal the light within your eyes


This love is strong, nobody could break it down,
It’s stronger than the tallest wall of stone
And when you smile, all the world around you fades,
And I see nothing else but you alone


You shine....


We two, we can overcome the fears,
We can get through the darkest months, the hardest years,
And together we will stand to face the day
There’s a shining light protecting us, the strongest bond connecting us,
Without you my whole world would turn to grey,


And yet you say it’s me, say that I’m the strongest one,
The one that leads you down the straight and true,
The one that’s calm, when all around is stress and strain,
But that’s exactly what I think of you.

(Vocal interlude)

You shine....
