I wonder if you're warm tonight
And if you found something as bright
And I wonder if you remember me right
You might, you might, you might
But I'm sure you've reduced me to a shadow
Haunting, but entirely peripheral
And I wonder if you remember at all
You might
I'm always shining - I should know better than to keep
Always shining - radiating heat
I'm always, I'm always
I've got to give up
What have I become in these 400 days without sun
I'd like to know why I can't stop the searchlights
Out across the empty sky
If only I surrendered more easily
Accepted the loss with some dignity
And I wonder if maybe that's a better way to be
Because I'm running out of energy
I'm always shining - code for you and me
Always shining - emerald green
I'm always, I'm always
I've got to give up
What have I become in these 400 days without sun
I'd like to know why I can't stop the searchlights
Where have you gone
I cannot break this vigil; I'm awake
