never give up on love

you got to believe it's true

never give up the faith

to carry on and push on through

never resign yourself

and settle for second best

hold your head up high

and let your heart do the rest



know who you are

reach for a star

ah-ah-ah



shine on shine on

through the dark night shine on

shine on shine on

you'll be alright if you shine on



you got to believe in love

and never give up your dreams

look into the future

don't regret all that has been

you got to love yourself

before you love someone new

the world's your oyster

ripe for the picking

the stage's lit up for you



trust who you are

'cause you're the star

ah-ah-ah



shine on shine on

through the dark night shine on

shine on shine on

you'll be alright if you shine on

come on come on



shine on shine on

shine so brightly shine on

come on come on

shine on shine on

love all mighty shine on
