Our Friends Shine
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.
Yeah, you know this place
And your friends shine around you now
Yeah, you know this place
And their hands make the safest house
That you know, yeah, you know
And the sun's sinkin' slowly down
Over time, over time, and again
Yeah, you know this face
And it sleeps right beside you now
Yeah, you love this face
And it speaks from inside you now
Like your own, yeah your own
And the sun's sinking slowly down
Over us, over time, and again
Yeah, we chose this place
Though I don't recognize the ground
It's a lonely place
That our friend's shine around us now
And they glow, yeah, they glow
Like the sun sinking slowly down
Over us, over us, once again
