Intro
Close your tired eyes relax and then
Count from one to ten and open them.
All these heavy thoughts will try to weigh you down,
But not this time.
Way up in the air youre finally free,
and you can stay up there right next to me.
All this gravity will try to pull you down,
But not this time.
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out,
Then its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star,
So shine no matter where you are.
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light
Cause its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star,
So shine no matter where you are
Tonight.
(whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
Brighter than a shooting star,
Shine no matter where you are
Tonight.
Gaze into my eyes when the fire starts,
and fan the flame so high it melts our hearts.
Oh, the pouring rain will try to put it out,
But not this time.
Let your colors burn and brightly burst
Into a million sparks that all disperse
And illuminate a world that will try to bring you down,
But not this time
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out,
Then its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star,
So shine no matter where you are.
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light,
Cause its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star,
So shine no matter where you are
Tonight.
A thousand heartbeats beat in time.
It makes this dark planet come alive.
So when the lights flicker out tonight,
Youve gotta shine.
When the sun goes down and the lights burn out,
Then its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star,
So shine no matter where you are.
Fill the darkest night with a brilliant light,
Cause its time for you to shine
Brighter than a shooting star,
So shine no matter where you are
Tonight.
(whoa-oh, whoa-oh, whoa-oh)
Brighter than a shooting star.
Shine no matter where you are tonight
