Shine Down

[oriseus]

Shadows peel away from dawn
Mem'ries of the night that's gone.
First, I lay my eyes upon the sun:
First, all things beneath its light are one.

Light seep in and keep me pure.
Strengthen that I may endure.
First, I warm my limbs for what's to come.
First, all things beneath your light are one.

     I'm dreaming, forever of your sunlight, shine down-
     Wanting, to feel you warmth forever, my love.
     Dreaming, of a dawn that's neverending now shine down-
     Wanting, to feel your arms around me now my love.

Leaves of life aching for your touch.
Nothing new could ever hurt so much.
First, I long for you until I come undone.
First, all things beneath your light are one.

Water falls from heaven into stone.
Tears from angels seeing me alone.
First, I carve the rivers still undone.
First, all things beneath your light are one.

I'm dreaming, forever of your sunlight, shine down-
     Wanting, to feel you warmth forever, my love.
     Dreaming, of a dawn that's neverending now shine down-
     Wanting, to feel your arms around me now my love.

Shadows lengthen, dusk is falling soon.
Daylight falls behind the rising moon.
First, I greet the newborn stars that come.
First, all things beneath their light are one.

Cold and dark the way it all began.
Lonely, dreaming of when you'll return.
First, I make my blanket of the sky.
First, I dream of sunlight in your eyes.

And I'm dreaming, forever of your sunlight, shine down-
     Wanting, to feel you warmth forever, my love.
     Dreaming, of a dawn that's neverending now shine down-
     Wanting, to feel your arms around me now my love.

I'm dreaming, forever of your sunlight, shine down.
     Wanting, to feel your warm surrender, my love.
     Dreaming, of a dawn that's neverending, now shine down.
     Wanting, to sleep beside you forever, now shine down.
