Shine A Light For Me Lyrics by Matthew E. White

K Bay

2021

[Verse 1]
Lovin' all night on the edge of a knife
Tryin’ to catch a break but I ain’t making any time
Babe, you know I need it, shine your light for me
I kept you on your toes and you kept me in line
Now we’re tryin’ to find a way and maybe get out alive
Baby if I’m breathing, for you my love is to keep
We all need it, someone to part the sea
And tonight my heart is bleeding’, shine a light out for me
[Verse 2]
I’ve felt the edge of an ocean, I felt the tip of the night
But I never felt nothin' like you holding me tight
If you could make it twice the pressure, and maybe half the speed
And if these angels that are chasin' are the angels of death
We’ll smoke ‘em one at a time, or two by two if we’re left
Seems like the Lord plays the song, you only choose the dance
So put your hand in my hand, and put your head on my chest
We’ll keep on movin’ even if there’s just a little bit left
[Chorus]
I left my blood on your doorframe, lover
They’ll pass on over if they’re lookin' for me
Don’t need no angels when my time runs out
'Cause when the night’s too dark to see
You’ll shine a light for me
You’ll shine a light for me
[Verse 3]
We’re hardest to break, if we are holding our line
We’re passing a test if we’re just passin' the time
If I sing it to you slowly, you’ll find the harmony
We’ll tie our bones to our back, and turn our face to the west
Every chance worth the taking is worth two of the rest
Remember, no need for lightning when the thunder’s asleep
Make sure you’re heart's beating steady, and shine a light out for me
Make sure you’re heart is beating steady, and shine a light out for me
[Chorus]
I left my blood on your doorframe, lover
They’ll pass on over if they’re lookin' for me
Don’t need no angels when my time runs out
'Cause when the night’s too dark to see
You’ll shine a light for me
You’ll shine a light for me
You’ll shine a light for me
