[Verse 1]
Everyone knows that I'm ten feet under
'Til you come along and brighten my day
Everyone knows that you kill the thunder
The roaring in my brain
You've given me the strength to see right through the haze

[Chorus]
Shine
C'mon, and let it shine
Light me up
Make me feel alive
You've got what it takes (shine on me today)
Shine
And only you know how to lift my spirit off the ground
And chase those clouds away
Shine on me today

[Verse 2]
When everything's wrong, I just pick the phone up
The sound in your voice, well, it fills my eyes with tears of joy
'Cause I know you'll be there when I'm hanging by a thread
You're my heaven sent

[Chorus]
Shine
C'mon, and let it shine
Light me up
Make me feel alive
You've got what it takes (shine on me today)
Shine
And only you know how to lift my spirit off the ground
And chase those clouds away
Shine on me today

[Bridge]
Oh, you have this way of making me feel like I can fly
You're underneath my wings
So I'll free fall out of the sky
You're always there to save me
You know you'll save me

[Chorus]
Shine
C'mon, and let it shine
Light me up
Make me feel alive
You've got what it takes (shine on me today)
Shine
And only you know how to lift my spirit off the ground
And chase those clouds away
Shine on me today

[Outro]
C'mon, and shine (shine)
Shine
Shine on me
Shine on me
Shine on me today
Shine (please)
Shine on me today
Everyone knows that I'm ten feet under
'Til you come along and brighten my world
