Well, that weight is heavy, you'll carry it to your dead
'Til you can't feel your fingers, 'til you can't fill your head
'Til you can't make decisions to save your own life
'Til you're spending your days under the point of the knife, yeah
We all need someone to use
Babe, we got to refuse
To be left behind
Baby, shine your light down on me
Give me something to believe
Oh, come on and baby, shine it, shine it, shine it
Won't you shine your light down on me?
I ain't got nothing you see
Oh, come on and baby, shine it, shine it, shine it
The days leave you weary, left out in the cold
'Til you're begging for so long you've got to do what you're told
Till you see premonitions of what your life could have been
Until you're like a leaf falling and blowing out in the wind, yeah
We all need someone to use
Babe we got to refuse
To be left behind
Baby, shine your light down on me
Give me something to believe
Oh, come on and baby, shine it, shine it
Won't you shine your light down on me?
I ain't got nothing you see
Oh, come on and baby, shine it
Well, you'll see me out at the bars, tonight
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Just waiting for someone to make it right
Ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah
Won't you shine your light down on me?
Give me something to believe
Oh, come on and baby, shine it
Shine your light down on me
I ain't got nothing you see
Come on and baby, shine it, shine it, shine it
Baby, shine your light down on me
Give me something to believe
Oh, come on and baby, shine it, baby, shine it, baby, shine it
Won't you shine your light down on me?
