Shine

Way out in the darkness

I get a sense of you

A feeling so familiar

In everything I do

Like you were there before me

But, now your tracks are cold

There's a ghost that lingers

In stories I'm told

Way on far horizon

Is the brightest light

A beacon for the dreamers

To always keep in sight

I feel your footprints

As clear as day

And I see where you stumbled

There along the way

And in your eyes I've seen a shine

Of something I can't name

Is it a star in the spotlight

Or a fire out on the plain?

I feel your shadow

Everywhere I go

Reaching back through history

To days I'll never know

And there are times

When your eyes shine

And I must turn away

Is it all that you dreamed of

Or dreams of yesterday?

Well, in your eyes I've seen a shine

Of something I can't name

Is it a star in the spotlight

Or a fire out on the plain?

Is it all that you dreamed of

Or dreams of yesterday
