What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I took an hundred and ten pictures of you
2
Put them all around me and wondered
3
What to do
4
Like a temple in memory
5
A shrine in your name
6
To days I don't remember
7
To nights I can't reclaim
8
I took a part of my life
9
About eighteen years long
10
Pulled it all to pieces and tried to make a song
11
With a groove you could dance to, a tune you could hum
12
I sung to my reflection, looking for the one
13
Man sees the boy in his eyes
14
Boy sees the man, singing:
15
[Chorus:]
16
Shine on
17
I thought you were gone
18
I thought you gave in
19
Deserted me long ago
20
Shine on
21
You're somebody's son
22
You're laughing again
23
You're letting the feeling grow
24
I took a hold of myself; it's not how I planned
25
Pulled myself together and acted like a man
26
I got a face I must keep up - responsible me
27
I keep it on my shoulders for everyone to see
28
But man sees the boy in his eyes
29
Boy sees the man, singing:
30
[Chorus]
31
Letting the feeling grow
32
Giving the years back to me
33
Letting the whole world know
34
That somebody in there loves me
35
Man sees the boy when he cries
36
Boy sees the man clinging on to him
37
Man sees the boy in his eyes
38
Boy sees the man, singing:
39
Shine on
