Shine Your Light on Me

I held a flower in the cup of your hand and you said 'No'
I put a rock upon the sand of your intent, said 'I don't think so'
You turned a spiral in the air
I let my eyes run through the dark or your hair
You said 'Let reason be damned. Let's take what we can'
The layers of the onion come undone

Come on shine your light on me
Come on give me sanity
Come one, come all
We'll break your fall from the mountain
From the graces of your sin

I heard the swallow at your door
Re-telling rumours that I once heard before
Seems all history's true, same for me same for you
The purpose of the mystery is proved

Come on shine your light on me
Come on give me sanity
Come one, come all
We'll break your fall from the mountain
From the graces of your sin

The curtsies, the boy bands, the makes-outs
All of your rock n roll
Defeated, mistreated, completed
Looks like you lost control
The dark side of the love tryst
All the break-ups, all the girls kissed - gone
All gone

You turned a spiral in the air
I let my eyes run through the dark or your hair
You said 'Let reason be damned. Let's take what we can'
The layers of the onion come undone

Come on shine your light on me
Come on give me sanity
Come one, come all
We'll break your fall from the mountain
From the graces of your sin

The curtsies, the boy bands, the makes-outs
All of your rock n roll
Defeated, mistreated, completed
Looks like you lost control
The dark side of the love tryst
All the break-ups, all the girls kissed - gone
All gone

The curtsies, the boy bands, the makes-outs
All of your rock n roll
Defeated, mistreated, completed
Looks like you lost control
The dark side of the love tryst
All the break-ups, all the girls kissed - gone
Like spirits in a song
