There’s a place between waking and sleeping

A space where the land meets the sea

That’s where the shadows are keeping

The shine that you once kept for me

The stars are all laughing and twinkling

In a language they share with the moon

That’s when my feelings start thinking

Of the shine that’s abandoned my room

The shine

The shine

It dazzled from your sun to mine

The shine

The shine

Your luminous smile is sublime

And it glows from your bones deep within

Auroras were born on your skin

The shine

The shine

The shine

Where do you think we went wrong

Can we go back and watch it again

Can we rewind our lives ‘til the danger arrives

And erase it with a magnetic pen

There’s a sign in the shop on the corner

Its colors jump off of my floor

Maybe I didn’t love you the way that you wanted

But I’ve never loved anyone more

Gotta get away, got to take some time

Nothing that I say seems to change your mind

Everywhere I look is just a canyon

Where the sun don’t ever shine
