darling i have a true confession
i ran into an old flame today
you wouldn't like the way our conversation
turned to how we let each other slip away
i was reminded of a half forgotten feeling
one i shared with her so long ago
since honesty is one thing we believe in
let me tell you something you should know
oh how she shines
shines a light on you
and in that light i see
just how much you mean to me
oh how she shines
there was a time when she was all that mattered
long before i gave my heart to you
but standing there only inches from her
she touched my hand and suddenly i knew
if there was a time i ever doubted
what i'd do if she walked through my door
could i turn around and leave without her
with all my heart now i can say for sure
oh how she shines
shines a light on you
and in that light i see
just how much you mean to me
oh how she shines
oh how she shines
