I have wandered far and wide 
All the way from Paris to Mexico 
'Til I was gone and didn't know 

In the end the thing that keeps me walking 
Is your shine, your shine in the morning, your shine in the distance, 
Your shine inside the laughter and the ghosts 

They have spoken of the river forever bending inside the fever 
Of the saints that walk all night with no domain 

In the end the thing that keeps them walking is your shine 
Your shine when they wear no coat, your shine when the feelings low 
Your shine when it's too late to turn around 

I have frozen up my dreams, thinking I was all alone 
Fighting every minute for each turning stone 
I have reached the rocket speed 
I have touched the ground that feeds 
Scaling fences, looking for the healing sun 

In the end the thing that keeps me walking is your shine 
Your shine in transmissions, your shine in decisions, 
Your shine when I labor to the new day, 
It's your shine, your shine, your shine, shine, shine on
