ORIGINAL SONG: Shine Your Light Robbie Robertson Ladder 49 Soundtrack The cry of the city like a siren's song Wailing over the rooftops the whole night long Saw a shooting star like a diamond in the sky Must be someone's soul passing by These are the streets Where we used to run where your Papa's from These are the days Where you become what you become These are the streets Where the story's told The truth unfolds Darkness settles in Chorus: Shine your light down on me Lift me up so i can see Shine your light when you're gone Give me the strength To carry on, carry on Don't wanna be a hero Just an everyday man Trying to do the job the very best he can But now it's like living on borrowed time Out on the rim, over the line Always tempting fate like a game of chance Never wanna stick around to the very last dance Sometimes i stumble and take a hard fall hold your grip off the wall Chorus I thought i saw him walking by the side of the road Maybe trying to find his way home He's here but not here He's gone but not gone Just hope he knows if I get lost Chorus My Version: SHINE YOUR LIGHT ON ME Ive been down this road before Its cold and dark and weary No stars above me, no ground below me The world is empty and I can only hear my heartbeat. Shine your light on me Shine your light on me When Im all alone Be my strength, my home Shine your light on me Help me God to see That the world is bright Be it day or night Shine your light on me. Sometimes Im hungry, my soul is thirsty I long to hear the sound Of sweet melody People around me, they see right through me Where has feeling gone Where is humanity. Shine your light on me Shine your light on me When Im all alone Be my strength, my home Shine your light on me Help me God to see That the world is bright Be it day or night Shine your light on me. Now I see children with smiling faces Innocence not lost, they gladen us the most Teach the chidren To be a mirror For the blind to see, for the mute to talk For the sick to heal, for the lame to walk Shine your light on them Shine your light on them When they're all alone Be their strength, their home Shine your light on them Help them God to see That the world is bright Be it day or night Shine your light on them.
