Producer: Adam Young

Close your tired eyes, relaxing them
Count from one to ten and open them
All these heavy thoughts will try to weigh you down, but not this time
Way up in the air, you're finally free, and you can stay up there, right next to me
All this gravity will try to pull you down, but not this time
When the sun goes down, and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than the shooting star, so shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night, with a brilliant light
'Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star, so shine no matter where you are, tonight
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are, tonight
Gazing into my eyes, when the fire starts
And fan the flame so hot, it melts our hearts
All the pouring rain, will try to put it out, but not this time
Let your colors burn, and brightly burst
Into a million sparks, but all dispersed and illuminate a world
That'll try to bring you down, but not this time
When the sun goes down, and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than the shooting star, so shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night, with a brilliant light
'Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star, so shine no matter where you are, tonight
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are, tonight
A thousand heartbeats beating time, and makes this dark planet come alive
So when the lights flicker out tonight, you gotta shine
When the sun goes down, and the lights burn out
Then it's time for you to shine
Brighter than the shooting star, so shine no matter where you are
Fill the darkest night, with a brilliant light
'Cause it's time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star, so shine no matter where you are, tonight
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Brighter than a shooting star
Shine no matter where you are, tonight

Owl City

Originally making songs in his basement for his friends as Sky Sailing, Adam Young then discovered synth music and became Owl City, releasing two relatively unpopular albums Maybe I’m Dreaming and Of June before making his hit single “Fireflies” which made his third album as Owl City, Ocean Eyes a hit.

After this worldwide success he put on two more albums, All Things Bright and Beautiful in 2011, and The Midsummer Station in 2012. In 2014 he released an EP, Ultraviolet, composed of 4 songs whom one would appear on his following album, Mobile Orchestra. Retiring from Owl City in 2016 to focus on Adam Young Scores, a new project made of orchestral soundtracks about historic events, he reappeared in 2017 to tease his upcoming new album Cinematic, with the release of a series of three EPs, called Reel 1 , 2 and 3.
