Shine

Laying flat on our backs

Picking our favorite stars

We try shining back from this roof of ours

But after a while you say it seems pretty far

I think you forgot how bright you are

Shine shimmer and you shine

It's been one hell of a year

The sky is battered and bruised

But I'm still hanging on all because of you

'Cause you held up the sun

And you never let go

The world needs you now more than you'll ever know

Shine shimmer and you shine

Shimmer and you shine

The northern pines and our teenage sky is still in your

eyes

When we're eighty years old

And you can't see a thing

You must not forget how much light you bring

Shine shimmer and you shine

Brightly you will shine

Shine shimmer and you shine
