Lyrics
The Shining
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Faith pours from your walls, drowning your calls
I've tried to hear, you're not near
Remembering when I saw your face
Shining my way, pure timing
Now I've fallen in deep, slow silent sleep
it's killing me, I'm dying
To put a little bit of sunshine in your life
Soleil all over you, warm sun pours over me
Soleil all over you
Warm sun
Now this slick fallen rift came like a gift
your body moves ever nearer
And you will dry this tear
Now that we're here, and greave for me, not history
But now I'm dry of thoughts, wait for the rain
Then its replaced, sun settin
And suddenly we're in love with everything
Soleil all over you, warm sun pours over me
Soleil all over you
Warm sun
