  • Fear in your eyes like you’re
    Lookin' for a window
    For the wide open skies wonderin'
    Where do I begin though?
    If you knew how bright you shine
    Do you think it might change your mind?
    The clouds are on fire
    And they’re telling you something
    That they know

    You shine like gold you shine like gold

    Remember what you said when you
    Drove all night from Memphis?
    That the headlights of your eyes
    Were running from the tempest
    Well the dawn broke through the black
    When you’re laughin', lookin' back
    No matter how dark
    The morning comes up relentless

    You shine like gold you shine like gold
    And your soul was born to shine
    Like a spark (like a spark)
    In the night (in the night)
    In the dark, it hides your glow

    When the thoughts, in your mind
    Are like thieves and they take you places
    Where love is hard to believe
    And the air gets thin
    And lungs find it harder to breathe
    Remember what you know

    You shine like gold you shine like gold

    You shine like gold you shine like gold
    And your soul was born to shine
    Like a spark (like a spark)
    In the night (in the night)
    In the dark, it hides your glow Writer/s: JASON WADE, JON FOREMAN, TIM FOREMAN
