Shining

(album: Cha Cha Cha - 1995)

I met you on a rollercoaster
Drive by shooting
In a big black roadster
It felt so good
We danced in clubs
In ballroom gowns
Lined them up and all fell down
It felt so good
We played our cards for the promised land
Walked on air and you took my hand
It felt so good
It met you where our worlds collide
No-one could touch us side by side
It felt so good

Now you see it, now you don't
Maybe get it, maybe you're wrong, maybe you're right
Now you see it, now you don't
How could you lose it

When you shine so bright, when you feel so right?

I loved you with a 45
A bullet jig at a roadside jive
It felt so good
We chased a demon through the night
And laced our dreams with neon lights
It felt so good
We lost our heads in a winning streak
Touched the sun and felt the heat
It felt so good
I loved you a 45, a cadillac
And we got away alive
It felt so good

Good won't last

Now you see it, now you don't... [Etc]
When you shine so bright, when you feel so right?

What did you feel in your drunken haze
Did you feel better, than your better days
When you shine so bright?
How did you feel on your higher plain?
How did you feel and would you do it again
When you shine so right?

I met you on a rollercoaster
Drive by shooting
In a big black roadster
It felt so good
We danced in clubs
In ballroom gowns
Lined them up and all fell down
It felt so good
We played our cards for the promised land
Walked on air and you took my hand
It felt so good
I lost you to a dollar deal
I didn't know if it was real
It felt so good
Good won't last

Now you see it, now you don't... [Etc]
When you shine so bright, when you feel so right?
