lyrics
Things have changed
And the past is gone
Where’s the love?
Turn your light on
I’m making it shine
I’m making It shine
Want to lend a hand
For the cause
You want to change the rules
You want to change the laws
But I’m just making a dime
I’m making it shine
Yeah, I think I can feel it
It’s getting me high
Now I’m getting beyond it
I’m getting it right
I’m making It shine
It was in your mind
Now it’s happening.
From across the room
You draw me in
I’m getting a sign
The winter’s coming
It gets in your bones
Looking at the moon
At night alone
I’m making it shine
