Vinyl Theatre - Shine On Lyrics

What you are, what you are now
what you are what you want to be
I could not make my promise to you
there's a sudden change in sound
cascading words that drown you out
like a tidal wave

Like diamonds, we're built with time
We've come a long way to change our minds
Like diamonds, we're built with time
It's a long way, such a long wait so

Shine on, shine, up and up we go
to the back, to the back we'll run

What I am, what I am now
I'm a man of something more
I could not break my promise to you

There's a constant running thought
that teaches what we ought to be
but we'll break away

Like diamonds, we're built with time
We've come a long way to change our minds
Like diamonds, we're built with time
It's a long way, such a long wait so
