Faces to the Sun

Shine on Shine on We turn our faces to the sun Shine on Shine on We took a slow road to the coast Trying to find a reason for the things that matter most And as our dawn became a blue savannah sky I thought I saw an endless summer in your eyes If we knew what we had lost Could we bear to feel the pain or count the cost? From how we live, to how we die The songs we sing the flags we fly The things we choose to leave behind, the chains of time Woah! A battle lost, a battle won another journey's just begun And yet when all is said and done we'll turn our faces to the sun (shine on) It's funny how the years just slip away What we never got to do and what we never got to say But the gatherings of memory and the words that set us free: Where we're from and who we are and what we'll be If we knew what we had lost Could we bear to feel the pain or count the cost? From how we live, to how we die The songs we sing the flags we fly The things we choose to leave behind, the chains of time Woah! A battle lost, a battle won, another journey's just begun And yet when all is said and done we'll turn our faces to the sun Shine on Shine on We turn our faces to the sun Shine on Shine on We turn our faces to the sun Faces to the sun It's funny how the years just slip away What we never got to do and what we never got to say But the gatherings of memory and the words that set us free: Where we're from and who we are and what we'll be If we knew what we had lost Could we bear to feel the pain or count the cost? From how we live, to how we die The songs we sing the flags we fly The things we choose to leave behind, the chains of time Woah! A battle lost, a battle won, another journey's just begun And yet when all is said and done we'll turn our faces to the sun Shine on Shine on We turn our faces to the sun Shine on Shine on We turn our faces to the sun Faces to the sun We turn our faces to the sun Faces to the sun
