Alton Mitchell - Just Shine Bright

I wish that I could frame the joy in your eyes
'Cause I know life brings pain, and more cries
I won't make you promise me you'll stay the same
Just remember where you're from, that won't change
And I wish we'd live every day like Christmas
And I could heal your wounds with a quick kiss
Getting older sounds more fun than it is
But I didn't listen either when I was a kid
Now, I'm singing words that I wish I knew
All these moments come and go, oh yes it's true
All the things wrong in the world, but what shines through?
This world has a little light because of you
Hey my love
Just let me tuck you in while I can tonight
Most of your dreams will come true, it just takes time
Remember what I told you, 'bout the little light
Shine bright
Don't you cry
It'll be alright
Just shine bright
Shine bright
Don't you cry
It'll be alright
Just shine bright
I wish that I could hold your hand forever
But one day all of this will make you better
And one day all my fits will make you clever
And you will be a diamond due to pressure
For now let's go have fun
You play in the sun
All this singing
All this dancing
All this laughing
Girl, I'll do your nails
You can do my hair
Boys let's pretend you can take me anywhere
And if your mama says it's time to go sleep
I'll come in your room and sneak you candy
And let your dad take all the blame, he owes me
And I'll see you later, the gator knows me
Shine bright
Don't you cry
It'll be alright
Just shine bright
Shine bright
Don't you cry
It'll be alright
Just shine bright
