I never really feel quite right and I don't know why, all I know is something's wrong
Every time I look at you, you seem so alive
Tell me how you do it, walk me through it, I'll follow in every footstep

Maybe on your own you take a cautious step
Till you wanna give it up, but all I want is for you to
Shine, shine down on me
Shine on this life that's burnin' out

I say a lot of things sometimes that don't come out right
And I act like I don't know why
I guess a reaction's all I was lookin' for
When you look through me, you really knew me, like no one else ever looked before

Maybe on your own you take a cautious step
Till you wanna give it up, but all I want is for you to
Shine, shine down on me
Shine on this life that's burnin' out ( I know , I know, know yougot somethin' )
Shine, ( shine it on me ) shine down on me ( I want to feel it)
Shine on this life that's burnin' out

Solo

Maybe on your own you take a cautious step
Till you wanna give up, but all I want is for you to
Shine, shine down on me ( just show me something )
Shine on this life that's burnin' out ( you give me something that I've never known )
Shine ( if you could show me the way ) shine down on me ( I wantto know what's going on in your life )
Shine on this life that's burnin' out ( don't you know I want you to )
Shine, shine down on me, Shine on this life that's burnin' out
