Knocked me off of my feet
But I think it's time for me to start walking again,
Stop running away from me.
Next time you see me,
I will be singing a new song,
I am learning to shine on.
Shine on, shine on,
There'll be time enough for darkness when everything's gone.
Shine on, shine on,
There is work to be done in the dark before dawn.
And it's been hard not to give in,
And it ain't easy living in hard times.
I know it's weighing on your mind.
Next time you see me,
I will be uplifting, yes I will give you hope!
I am learning as I go to shine on.
Shine on, shine on.
There'll be time enough for darkness when everything's gone.
Shine on, shine on,
There is work to be done in the dark before dawn.
Shine on, shine on.
There is work to be done
So you you've got to shine on
