Lyrics Bishop Gunn – Shine

Text:

I’m just sittin’ on your front porch
Wonderin’ how could I be so far from my home
And my mind is somewhere else
But when I find it I’ll patch up where it’s been blown

Now I’m just floatin’ on the breeze
And I feel I’m fallin’ like these leaves
I must be cornerstoned
Oh, but when I reach that ground
I’ll share this peace of mind I’ve found
I can feel it in my bones

But it’s gonna take a little time
For me to set that parkin’ break
And let myself unwind

Shine that light on me
I’ll sit and tell you my stories
Shine on me
And I will find a song
I will sing it just for you

Now I’ve been movin’ way too fast
On a runaway train with the heavy load of my past
And these rails that I’ve been ridin’ on
They’re worn so thin that they’re damn near gone
I guess that they just werent’ built to last

I’m gonna try to make sense of what I can
Of where I’m goin’, oh, and where I’ve been

Shine that light on me
I’ll sit and tell you my stories
Shine on me
And I will find a song
I will sing it just for you

And I will find the words to help you make it through
If you call my name, I’ll sing them to you

Shine that light on me
I’ll sit and tell you my stories
Shine on me
And I will find a song
I will sing it just for you

Shine on me, yeah
Shine (Oh, yeah, oh, yeah)
(Shine, shine, on me, yeah)
Shine, shine on me (Shine on me)
Shine, shine on me (Shine on me)
(On me)
