I look at the world and its patrons
Clicking along with a smile
Oh how I wish I could join them
For a little while
I look in your eyes and wonder who's there
Smile and wonder when you'll leave
I wonder how long it takes you
To deceive
I need to shine . . . shine
You walk away, but I don't cry
I send you away with a smile and a sigh
I don't know you but you've
Made a part of me die
I need to shine . . . shine
With you I'm as cold as the morning
As dry as the evening sky
I don't know you but you've
Made a part of me die
I need to shine
