Son Volt - Shine on lyrics

rate me

Going for broke in a film noir smile

Know its’ hard to your easy start

You don’t let the clicks or injustice get you down

There’s more to find than what you pick up

Sometimes the furthest irsn’t quite enough

Shadows are good companions for the lot that you say

The wolrd’s deserted and down

Like there’s no love around

The river of life cuts cross

Hearts no longer entwine

Words shine on like precious stone

Judgement day, the truth be known

The miles and years make it better

Through gilded tears

Race around to the rattling drone

Diamonds in the distance make the battle sound

Equilibrium found on the outskirts of any town

The wolrd’s deserted and down

Like there’s no love around

The river of life cuts cross

Hearts no longer entwine

Words shine on like precious stone

Judgement day, the truth be known

The miles and years make it better

Through gilded tears

Words shine on like precious stone

Judgement day, the truth be known

The miles and years make it better

Through gilded tears

Miles and years make it better

Through gilded tears.
