When the day is harder than it’s ever been 
And the road is longer than you’ve ever seen 
When you think it’s all over you’re not strong enough 
I’ll be beside you to give you love 

When the darkness surrounds you 
and you’re all alone 
When you need a friend to lead you home 
Someone to hold you, someone to care 
Call my name I’ll be there 

Shine on, sweet emotion 
Love be a reason to light up my way 
Sail with me on a clear blue ocean 
Shine on for me today 

When the night is lonely 
And you’re filled with fear 
Remember the one who is always near 
I’ll be your comfort, I’ll dry your tears 
I’ll come and hold you ’till the night disappears 

Shine on, sweet emotion 
Love be a reason to light up my way 
Sail with me on a clear blue ocean 
Shine on for me today 

Lead me to your heart 
Give me ev’rything you’ve got 
Higher and higher 
Don’t you ever, don’t you ever stop 

Shine on, sweet emotion
Love be a reason to light up my way 
Sail with me on a clear blue ocean 
Shine on for me today
