Shine On - Ladi6

She'll never grace the centerfold of Playboy magazine And chances are you'll never see her on the silver screen She's by far the biggest star the world will never see But she don't shine for the rest of the world She's too busy shinin' on me. Shine on, shine on, Shine on though the world may never see Oh my baby won't you, shine on, shine on, Shine all your sweet love on me. --- Instrumental --- She won't be asked for autographs like all the movie stars She won't wear Paris fashions or ride in chauffeured cars But in her jeans she's the sexy dream that they'd all like to be But she don't shine for the rest of the world She's too busy shinin' on me. Shine on, shine on, Shine on though the world may never see Oh my baby won't you, shine on, shine on, Shine all your sweet love on me. Shine all your sweet love on me...

Are they calling for our last dance? I see it in your eyes In your eyes Same old moves, for a new romance I could use the same old lines, but I'll sing Shine on, just shine on Close your eyes and they'll all be gone They can scream and shout That they've been sold out But it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on So shine on, just shine on With your smile just as bright as the sun Cause they're all just slaves to the gods they've made But you and I, just shone, just shone And when silence greets my last goodbye The words I need are in you're eyes And I'll sing... Shine on, just shine on Close your eyes and they'll all be gone They can scream and shout That they've been sold out But it paid for the cloud That we're dancing on So shine on, just shine on With your smile just as bright as the sun Cause they're all just slaves to the gods they've made But you and I just shone, just shone So shine on, just shine on Close your eyes and they'll all be gone They can scream and shout That they've been sold out But it paid for the cloud that we're dancing on So shine on, just shine on With your smile just as bright as the sun Cause they're all just slaves to the gods they've made But you and I just shone, just shone...
