Shine

You watch them watch you You want them to Then their faces fade away You worked your whole life To show them all that you have what it takes to shine Cause no one has, what you have and no one ever will You have heart and that's all you need You're gonna shine for them Shine for them Shine No matter what it takes, you'll shine Well, life got complicated and no one ever waited and your son grew into a man and all you wanted was to be loved was strangling all your chances to shine But you'd show them all That you make them fall Cause they didn't understand a thing about the way you'd shine Oh you shine You're gonna shine for them Shine for them Shine No matter what took you shine Now you're on the best stage and in your best dress But the show is not for you It's a clown with a frown in from out of town and your hairdo's falling and they're filing out and my God the clown is you But you dance for someone that smiles at you and drift into the shadows of yourself Off you go But you shine for him Shine for him Shine And now it's time for them to shine for you Shine for them Shine for them Shine
