Shine on
Shine on
We turn our faces to the sun
Shine on
Shine on
We took a slow road to the coast
Trying to find a reason for the things that matter most
And as our dawn became a blue savannah sky
I thought I saw an endless summer in your eyes
If we knew what we had lost
Could we bear to feel the pain or count the cost?
From how we live, to how we die
The songs we sing the flags we fly
The things we choose to leave behind, the chains of time
Woah!
A battle lost, a battle won another journey's just begun
And yet when all is said and done we'll turn our faces to the sun (shine on)
It's funny how the years just slip away
What we never got to do and what we never got to say
But the gatherings of memory and the words that set us free:
Where we're from and who we are and what we'll be
If we knew what we had lost
Could we bear to feel the pain or count the cost?
From how we live, to how we die
The songs we sing the flags we fly
The things we choose to leave behind, the chains of time
Woah!
A battle lost, a battle won, another journey's just begun
And yet when all is said and done we'll turn our faces to the sun
Shine on
Shine on
We turn our faces to the sun
Shine on
Shine on
We turn our faces to the sun
Faces to the sun
It's funny how the years just slip away
What we never got to do and what we never got to say
But the gatherings of memory and the words that set us free:
Where we're from and who we are and what we'll be
If we knew what we had lost
Could we bear to feel the pain or count the cost?
From how we live, to how we die
The songs we sing the flags we fly
The things we choose to leave behind, the chains of time
Woah!
A battle lost, a battle won, another journey's just begun
And yet when all is said and done we'll turn our faces to the sun
Shine on
Shine on
We turn our faces to the sun
Shine on
Shine on
We turn our faces to the sun
Faces to the sun
We turn our faces to the sun
Faces to the sun
