SHINE

Sipping hot coffee and talking

Can’t take my eyes away

I’m captivated by your face

Wondering what today will bring

It’s like you shine....

Shine from within

You always tell me stop looking

For all the bad in everything

Tomorrow’s out of our hands

always believe in yourself

It’s like you shine...........

Shine from within

You shine from within

Baby you shine like the stars across still waters

Like the sun as it gently warms us

You shine like the rain on colored glass

Baby you light up life

And you shine enough for both of us

Always full of positive thoughts

Wouldn’t be me without your love and support

And when you sleep and the world turns

I wish you only the best

It’s what you deserve

You deserve only the best

So beautiful inside and out, and you always keep so happy

And when your cup’s half full, mine is half empty

I think you were born with a smile on your face

Always brave and treat every day as if it’s a test

Because it’s like you shine

Shine from within

You shine from within

Baby you shine like the stars across still waters

Like the sun as it gently warms us

You shine like the rain on colored glass

Baby you light up life

And you shine enough for both of us
