From the recording Renaissance
Lyrics
Shine on Me
Shelter me from the wind
That cold nor’easter that’s blowin’ in
May I step in out of this rain
And warm my bones beside your flame?
You welcome me in with a smile
Inside your cabin is warm and dry
I shake the cold off of my coat
Notice the rain has turned to snow
And when you shine your light me
There’s no place I’d rather be
I shine on you
And you shine, you shine on me
We share stories into the night
In the warm glow of firelight
You say “It’s late, why don’t you stay?”
Then grab your fiddle and start to play
As the fire slowly dies
It’s finally time to say goodnight
I fall gently into your bed
As dreams take flight inside my head
And when you shine your light me
There’s no place I’d rather be
I shine on you
And you shine, you shine on me
I shine on you
And you shine, you shine on me
