Shine

Shine

Last night in bed, found a way to fix my head

And I cannot forget.

Last week, so bleak, found myself beneath the sheets,

As I lay in her bed.

Was lost, now found, nothing can bring me down,

From this shooting star that carries me;

The two of us we’re not meant to be.

New love, so good, last week is in a book,

In a category called history.

Heart break, now saved, no need to mourn a one night stand.

New love, new plans, going to find a place to dance,

Just so I can hold her in my arms.

I’m just a man; I carry mistakes in my baggage.

Memories soon to be forgotten; calm like a bomb.

With words we move into a future, where skies are always blue

And the sun always seems to shine.

Fake love is just lust; I’ve found somebody I can trust.

I know that she doesn’t like to lie.

I speak my truth as I confess these feelings new,

Are from a former life.

You and I, stars and shine, twinkle in your eyes.

Real love is the only drug worthy of being spoken of.

The only thing I really want,

Is to be in your thoughts.

Pick up sticks and follow yellow bricks,

Or stay with me and fall in love.

Shine a light down on me;

If you shine your light, hopefully, you will allow me to-be.
