Shine a Light Songtext
von Jacob Golden

My favorite Daniel Johnston song was recorded on a tape
Deck before you were born
There′s a lyric in the where he talks about joy
And it held my hand through an infinite void

There was a girl in Ohio and my feelings were pure
Still I finally got kicked off of the tour
'Cause my heart has a habit and sometimes it shows
Saint Paul made a girl into an English rose


Shine a light on me

They laughed and threw some rotten apples

But I wasn′t on the stage that night
I was in the fourth grade with a boom box symphony
And 808 bass hits hidden in a microchip

The record company pushed for a hard, hard sell
But I couldn't check out of the roach motel
'Cause my heart has a habit and sometimes it shows
Saint Paul made a girl into an English rose

Shine a light on me
