I long to feel
My heart burned open wide
'Til nothing else remains
Except the fires from which I came
Like parted souls
Divided for an age
Awe and wonder I'd embrace
And the world anew again
But now...
This picture from me fades
From steel's cold hand there's no reprieve
Light the fire in me
Shine
Shine your light on me
Illuminate me
Make me complete
Lay me down
And wash this world from me
Open the skies
And burn it all away
'Cause I've been waiting
All my life, just waiting
For you to shine
Shine your light on me
I dreamt the world
With my eyes open
Time moved on and then --
New worlds begin again
Hold my heart
In this universe so vast
No moment was made to last
So light the fire in me
Shine
Shine your light on me
Illuminate me
Make me complete
Please shine
Shine your light on me
No hesitation
Make me complete
Lay me down
And wash this world from me
Open the skies
And burn it all away
'Cause I've been waiting
All my life, just waiting
For you to shine
Shine your light on me
Lay me down
And wash this world from me
Open the skies
And burn it all away
'Cause I've been waiting
All my life
Forever waiting
Shine your light on me
'Cause I've been waiting
All my life, just waiting
For you to shine
Shine your light on me
