Song title: Shine silently

(Lofgren) by Nils Lofgren

Shine silently

Just another room
Just another town
Same old crazy people hanging around
Still you shine silently

Different interstates
Comin' down alone
Feel like packin' all my bags
And running home
Shine silently

Shine silently
I don't need no light in the darkness
Shine silently
No I won't get lost while your loves shines
Shines on me

People at the door
People on the phone
Same old story
No time on my own
Still shine silently

Nothing left to say
Nothing left to prove
When it's said and done
There's nothing left but you, baby
Shine silently

Shine silently
I don't need no light in the darkness
Shine silently
No I won't get lost while your loves shines
Shines on me

Wherever I am, far away from home
I know your out there somewhere
I can feel you shining, I can feel you shining down
When I fall down in bed at night
Put a pillow between my legs and I grab the other one tight
I hold on, I hold on to a dream I had
You see I'm still willing to pay the price
'Cause we all know nobody ever dies twice
So let nothing keep you from your dreams
Don't let anybody keep you from your dreams

Notes: Played at the 17/18-Dec-2000 Conventional Hall shows, performed by Nils.
