Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna be adored
Don't wanna be first in line
Or make myself heard
I'd like to bring a little light
To shine a light on your life
To make you feel loved
[Verse 2]
No, don't wanna be the only one you know
I want to be the place you call home
[Verse 3]
I lay myself down to make it so
But you don't want to know
I give much more than I'd ever ask for
[Verse 4]
Will you see me in the end
Or is it just a waste of time
Trying to be your friend?
Just shine, shine, shine
Shine a little light
Shine a light on my life
And warm me up again
[Verse 5]
Fool, I wonder if you know yourself at all
You know that it could be so simple
[Verse 6]
I lay myself down to make it so
But you don't want to know
You take much more than I'd ever ask for
[Verse 7]
Say a word or two to brighten my day
Do you think that you could see your way
To lay yourself down and make it so?
But you don't want to know
You take much more than I'd ever ask for
