devin sinha - shine on me lyrics
[verse 1]
the cracks in the pavement are showin’
the boards on the windows are thin you can speak your intentions thousands of times
it doesn’t matter if you never begin ohio is rusted and bleeding
her fingers are dry to the bone there’s a point when the place that you live in
ain’t a place you can still call your home
[chorus]
and i know there’s a better life coming
and you know there’s somewhere we can be that old road might be long but together we’re strong
and i’m waiting for the day we’ll see
’cause i know there’s a better light that’s gonna shine on me
[verse 2]
now our old loans are all coming due
the ship’s leakin’ and i’m out to sea
we lost every touch of the life that we knew but you never lost your hold on me
we borrowed and bartered on true love hoping it would see both us through
the cold air from the north brought me down to my knees but it never brought me closer to you
[chorus]
and i know there’s a better life coming and you know there’s somewhere we can be
that old road might be long but together we’re strong
and i’m waiting for the day we’ll see
’cause i know there’s a better light
that’s gonna shine on me
[instrumental]
[verse 3]
you tell me i look like my father i don’t see it but i hope that it’s true
been so long that some days i can’t remember his face
but i know he would have sure loved you your old dress is threadbare and simple
the most beautiful thing i have seen
like the wind through the keyhole you start with a shout
but you came like a whisper to me
[chorus]
and i know there’s a better life coming and you know there’s somewhere we can be
that old road might be long but together we’re strong and i’m waiting for the day we’ll see
’cause i know there’s a better light that’s gonna shine on me
