I took an hundred and ten pictures of you
Put them all around me and wondered
What to do
Like a temple in memory
A shrine in your name
To days I don't remember
To nights I can't reclaim
I took a part of my life
About eighteen years long
Pulled it all to pieces and tried to make a song
With a groove you could dance to, a tune you
Could hum
I sung to my reflection, looking for the one
Man sees the boy in his eyes
Boy sees the man, singing:
Shine on
I thought you were gone
I thought you gave in
Deserted me long ago
Shine on
You're somebody's son
You're laughing again
You're letting the feeling grow
Put them all around me and wondered
What to do
Like a temple in memory
A shrine in your name
To days I don't remember
To nights I can't reclaim
I took a part of my life
About eighteen years long
Pulled it all to pieces and tried to make a song
With a groove you could dance to, a tune you
Could hum
I sung to my reflection, looking for the one
Man sees the boy in his eyes
Boy sees the man, singing:
Shine on
I thought you were gone
I thought you gave in
Deserted me long ago
Shine on
You're somebody's son
You're laughing again
You're letting the feeling grow
