Shimmer & Shine

It takes a hundred miles of love
To heal a mile of pain
I never say goodbye to the scene
And I never blow out a flame
And I got
White lies for dark times and I don't need your crutch
I'm kicking out stained glass windows and I'm
Tender to the touch
Shimmer and shine
We leave it all behind
Shimmer and shine
When you tell me that you're mine
Shimmer and shine, shimmer and shine
Bring me the music for the revolution
It puts my mind at ease, to know
We're the problem, we're the solution
The cure and the disease
But life is trying to force me
Force me to trust
I've done all I can
I do what I must
Shimmer and shine
We leave it all behind
Shimmer and shine
When you tell me that you're mine
Shimmer and shine
We leave it all behind
Shimmer and shine
When you tell me that you're mine
Shimmer and shine, shimmer and shine
