Lyrics
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 the reason
For the things that matter most
And as the 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
Chains of time
Whoa
The battle lost (Hey)
The battle won (Hey)
Another journey’s (Hey)
Just begun
And yet when all is said and done
We turn our faces to the sun
(Hey)
Shine on
(Hey)
Shine on
We turn our faces to the sun
(Hey)
Shine on
(Hey)
Shine on
We turn our faces to the sun
Funny how the years just slip away
What we never got to do
What we never got to say
The gatherings of memory
And the words that set us free
Where we’re from
And who we are
And what will be
If we knew what we had lost
Could we bear to feel the pain
Or count the cost?
From how we live (Hey)
To how we die (Hey)
The songs we sing (Hey)
The flags we fly
The things we choose
To leave behind
Chains of time
Whoa
The battle lost (Hey)
The battle won (Hey)
Another journey’s (Hey)
Just begun
And yet when all is said and done
We turn our faces to the sun
(Hey)
Shine on
(Hey)
Shine on
We turn our faces to the sun
