Shine on, brighter than the sun
We shine on, you and me tonight
Burning like a fire in the night
I was looking at a photograph
Taken in a garden long before the war
There were old men and dogs, and little children
There were people by the waterside
Standing in the same place where I am today
Nothing has changed but you know
That time is moving like a river
It can only be love forever
We shine on, brighter than the sun
We shine on, you and me tonight
Burning like a fire in the night
There are those who can never cross
The space between a father and a son
We must say all the words that should be spoken
Before they are lost forever
And I was looking at a photograph
Taken from a window way above the world
We must leave here a garden for our children
We shine on, brighter than the sun
Live for every moment, before the moment's gone
We shine on, you and me tonight
Burning like a fire in the night
Leave here a garden for the children
Leave here a garden for the children
Leave here a garden for the children
Leave here a garden for the children
