Make It Shine

Make It Shine - Anders Holst

If I could only make it better

I would

If I could only make it stronger

I would

If I could only leave behind

Those spoken words of mine

And make it all shine

If I could only make it harder

I would

If I could only make it brighter

I think I should

Raise myself above it

And see it the way you saw it

It might've bought us some time

And made it all shine

If I could only be that man

And off and on I think of yesterday

I refuse to see it wasted

With the two of us enshrined in love sublime

The sweetest one I ve ever tasted

If I had only taken one step

At a time

If I had only tried to see

The other side

Reaching out my hand

Across the wasted land

To help us understand

To make it all shine

If I could only be that man

And off and on I think of yesterday

I refuse to see it wasted

With the two of us enshrined in love sublime

The sweetest one I've ever tasted

One day I am sure we will listen

To the words we said today

Someday day I know we'll be missing

Those days that came our way

I could've raised myself above it

And see it the way you saw it

Make it all shine

It's gonna take some time

To be that man

I could've raised myself above it

And see it the way you saw it

Make it all shine

It's gonna take some time
