Shine On is about selflessness and the innocence of youth.
Lyrics
Shine On © 2003 Spab Late in April in the morning They gather silent and greet the dawn in. A growing light over the hilltops The piper plays, prayers are made, Sunshine warms the air. Shine on you live in our hearts, an innocent past, captured in the flame Every Year we pause a minute to contemplate the meaning in it. Of wide eyes boys who had no choices they faced up to their fears they stand forever tall Shine on you live in our hearts, you gave us our starts, you laid out the path Poppy fields on foreign hillsides monuments on empty shorelines History books now tell the stories as we look back and raise a cheer for those no longer here. Shine On the humblest of things, just friendships not kings, the ordinary way
