I close the shutters tight and fall asleep
To the sound of the fan
The wind flows over me
And I dream you're not very far
Cause you're my shining star
Shine your light on me


Awake I feel the blood rush to my skin
I call you out and somehow let you in
And I dream you're not very far
Cause you're my shining star
Shine your light on me


The body's getting old but seems to find the way
For just enough to blow it all
When I'm running blind and I can't see anymore
You're there to open the door


When all feels lost I turn and there you are
Now I know you're never very far
Cause you're my shining star
Shine your light on me


Tomorrow never knows about what is today
But that's OK, yes that's OK
Cause when I'm running blind and I can't see
Your light shines down, right down on me
Some people call it luck some people call it fate
But all I know is I'm here today
Bathing in the light that lights my way
