Make It Shine

If I could only make it better I would If I could only make it stronger I would If I could only leave behind Those spoken words of mine And make it all shine! If I could only make it harder I would If I could only make it brighter I think I should Raise myself above it And see it the way you saw it It might've bought us some time And made it all shine! If I could only be that man And off and on I think of yesterday I refuse to see it wasted With the two of us enshrined in love sublime The sweetest one I've ever tasted If I had only taken one step At a time If I had only tried to see The other side Reaching out my hand Across the wasted land To help us understand To make it all shine! If I could only be that man And off and on I think of yesterday I refuse to see it wasted With the two of us enshrined in love sublime The sweetest one I've ever tasted One day I am sure we will listen To the words we said today Someday day I know we'll be missing Those days that came our way I could've raised myself above it And see it the way you saw it Make it all shine! It's gonna take some time To be that man
