Lyrics

I was looking through the window at a bird perched high on a warm summer day
Sitting in the maple by the garden's edge where the kids used to play
How they used to run around singing songs, how they moved unaware
Those days are gone but those melodies still linger in the air

Shine down everyday
The sun ain't looked so pretty since the middle of May
The night is coming down the railroad line
So shine, let your light shine

I can't believe how much we sigh when all the while that moon is on the rise
Through the naked trees, on the autumn breeze, across the endless skies
I've never wasted time in chasing memories but I can feel them here tonight
Tomorrow we'll be gone like a summer song that once danced in the light

So shine down everyday
The sun ain't looked so pretty since the middle of May
The night is coming down but I don't mind, so let your light...
Shine down everyday
The sun ain't looked so pretty since the middle of May
The night is coming down but I don't mind
So shine, let your light shine
