Lyrics Ilse DeLange – Shine

We couldn’t decide on who was going to drive tonight
So I guess he felt the tension from his side of this taxi-ride
Asking us where we’re headed for, and if we were both all right
I said «just drive»

I… I still shine
With every passing neon sign
I took everything inside
I still shine

I take my coat and I go where I always go
Guess that’ll pay for the ride
Right or wrong, it’s the same old song cause you never try
Shut up, cause you never listen
You’re selfish and conceited and man, you never compromise
Well I still shine

I… I still shine
If you’d rather be alone, just take your torments and go on
I still shine

Shine all you want, but you don’t taste like you used to
You can cry all you want, but you don’t bring me down like you used to
You never gave me credits for the things I did for you
I’m all right
Yeah I’m all right, yeah

I… I still shine
With every passing neon sign
I took everything inside
I still shine

Oh-oh-oh, I still shine
I still shine
I still shine
I still shine

Oh-oh-oh, I still shine
I still shine
I still shine
I still shine
I still shine
