10,000 Maniacs - Shining Light lyrics

Something was pulling me, without knowing what was leading me on Your shining light, your shining light In my darkest hour the only way to bring the dawn Was your shining light, your shining light But you're unaware your shining light is even on Like with a little glance when you take me by surprise And I take a chance, and see it all through your eyes Free me from my history, show me where to draw the line By lighting up the mystery, and you don't even know that it shines I'm not worried now, about flyin' too close to the sun Your shining light, your shining light When December skies are cold Well you know I will always run to Your shining light, your shining light But you're unaware your shining light is even on Like with a little glance when you take me by surprise And I take a chance, and see it all through your eyes Free me from my history, show me where to draw the line By lighting up the mystery, and you don't even know that it shines I won't abuse it so please just let it glow behind your smile Let me use it, let me feel the warmth like a little child Who understands your glance, though it takes me by surprise And I take a chance, and I see it all through your eyes It's your shining light And it moves me out on the mind It's your shining light You don't even know that it shines It's your shining light, ohh It's your shining light You don't even know that it shines It's your shining light, ohh
