(All is well) as it could ever be

(All is well) as it could ever be

(All is well) as it could ever be

(All is well) as it could ever, it could ask for me

I told myself that I'd get better, and I knew I would

But I've said that a thousand times

Said the same in the letters that I wrote to you

Guess you thought it's that same old line

Ooh, I know, but the rest of my soul

It don't ever need a reason why

Told myself I'd forget about you, forget you

Never will 'til the day I die

This won't take long, shouldn't take but a minute

I got you right here in my heart

It's only human, it's only natural

It's love for animal

Now, there you are, so far away

But instead I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away

One look at you and I can see the light of day

Shine away, shine away

'Cause I'm afraid of what could happen if you shine my way

Don't you shine my way

Now that it's over, I ask myself the reason why

That was in the time you were mine

Told myself, I'd get over it and over you

Now it's changed, it don't feel so right

Ooh, I know, but the rest of my soul

It don't ever need a reason why

Love you so and always will

Love to love you even still

Now there you are, so far away

All the while I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away

One look at you and I can see the light of day

Shine away, shine away

'Cause I'm afraid of what could happen if you shine my way

Shine away, shine away

I got somebody sittin' home, waiting for me, yeah

Shine away, shine away

You make it hard for somebody who don't want to play

And I want to play

I told myself that I'd get better, and I knew I would

But I said that ten thousand times

Said the same every time I made that call to you

Guess you thought it's that same old line

This won't take long, shouldn't take but a minute

I got you right here in my heart

It's only human, it's only natural

It's love for animal

Now there you are, so far away

But instead, I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away

One look at you and I can see the light of day

Shine away, shine away

'Cause I'm afraid of what could happen if you shine my way

Shine away, shine away

I got somebody sittin' home, waiting for me

Shine away, shine away

Shine away, shine away, shine away

Shine away, shine away

Shine away, shine away, shine away
