Lyrics
Shine On Me
© 2011 Paula Morin music/lyrics
Key C
Verse
A lonely girl
Inside her world
Felt nothing much
Until you touched me
Days fell away
Blue skies to Grey
No Thrill No Rush
Until you touched me
Now I believe
Stars shine for me
You're all I need
Don't ever leave me
Chorus
Shine on me
Shine on me
Love me deep
Or make me weep
But keep your light on me
Verse
Love did it's thing
Carried the sting
Poisoned my trust
Until you touched me
My heart grew a shell
Grief kept it well
Layered with dust
Until you touched me
Now I believe
Stars shine for me
You're all I need
Don't ever leave me
Chorus
Bridge
Where would I be
If you didn't care
Lost in the dark
Out there somewhere
How could I live
Alone in the night
I know my place
Is Under your light
Chorus
Shine on me
Shine on me
Love me deep
Or make me weep
But keep your light on me
