Lyrics Richard Marx

Richard Marx

Shine

The tree you planted

Is still holding on

Leaves are turning

Like nothing's wrong

Oh, what freedom

To only need the rain

Been without since May, ninety four

Tricks of the mind make it feel like it's more

But I'm not special

It's the same for everyone

Hold on, baby

I'm coming for you

I can hear your voice through the wine

Teach me how to turn the page

And show me how to shine

Times I wished I was already gone

Ain't no place I can't leave when I want

But then I see their faces

And I'm frozen in my shame

Hold on, baby

I'm coming for you

I can hear your voice through the wine

Teach me how to turn the page

And show me how to shine

Sometimes the sun shuts down the little I can see

And I remember what it felt like to be me

But all at once I know that nothing is the same

And all I'm left with is the pain

Hold on, baby

I'm coming for you

I can hear your voice through the wine

Teach me how to turn the page

And show me how to shine
