The Psychedelic Furs - Shine Lyrics

Artist: The Psychedelic Furs

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: John Geza Ashton, Richard Lofthouse Butler, Timothy George Butler

Shine, I heard her sing
I need a voice given anything
All I wanna dream
Flattery

Days that never come
To shine a light on the damage done
Some days without a sound
I feel the dark even closer now

I wear it a winter coat
I'm far away but not far enough
What's true is torn
And shouted down

The world's at my feet
And it turns when I speak
And it shines

Shine and all that is
Comes down upon me
Shine and all that is

Sleep, it never comes
I lay awake, all the shutters drawn
Look at me I'm shamed, my bottle done
I hear her beating down on dirty wings

I feel the room move under me
I'm far away but not far enough
What's true is torn
And out of place

The world's at my feet
And it turns when I speak
And it shines

Shine, I heard her sing
A crooked voice and a dirty wings
Beating under me
Flattery

The world's at my feet
And it turns when I speak
On its drums and its wheels
Shine

Shine and all that is
Comes down upon me
Shine and all that is
Comes down upon me
Shine and all that is
Comes down upon me
