VERSE 1
My father is a watching under me
He s been watching for eternity
And I ve done him proud but I m moving on
Gonna take my chances in the morning sun
Chorus
And let it shine and shine
Shine on me
Let it shine and shine
Shine on me
I ll let the light shine
Shine on me
Let it shine and shine on me
VERSE 2
I climbed my deepest sadness I sank down in my darkest fear
I swam through the abyss and I am standing right here
I took a wandering path around that straight and narrow trail
And I carved my initials in a tree with three nails
VERSE 3
Well I showed my scars to a woman on the street
Yeah I swallowed my pride when there was nothing else to eat
I ll shake the hand of a stranger when the morning comes to greet
Oh I ll stand in the dawn and let it be my defeat
