lyrics

I don't care who’s wrong or right
Or who could ever find the truth
Ill give my eye for yours babe
Ill give my tooth for your tooth
So let them all shine on forever
Let them all shine on forever
And baby don’t you let go

Ain’t it a shame to feel so small
Yeah its a shame to feel so down
I will bury you in the jailhouse babe
Ill steal your thorny crown
So let them all shine on forever
Let them all shine on forever

He who’s the fool is surely living
He who receives is surely giving
He who’s running never stops
He who’s poor knows what he’s got
So let them all shine on forever
Let them all shine on forever

-John Hewitt-
