Lyrics
Shine Like You
Quietly no fuss no fame
Came like a comet across the sky
Lit up the dark, left behind your trail
Well I hope I shine like you
I can do that just let me try
A book or a canvass or photo-shoot
Never done before no reason why
Well I'll tell it like it is and it ain't (repeat)
Ah, you left us too soon
Ah you left us too soon
Freedom comes at such a cost
Living on the edge don?t take much room
Found your life where others lost
Well I hope I shine like you
Pure in heart well they see God
In my book you qualify
A simple life, a sacrifice
Well I hope I shine like you (repeat)
Ah, you left us so soon
Ah, you left us so soon
Silently no fuss no fame
Burst like a comet across the sky
Slipped from darkness into the light
Well I hope I shine like you (repeat)
Ah, you left us too soon
Ah, you left us too soon
Ah, you left us so soon
Ah, you left us so soon
