Shine a Little Love Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Although the things you've done, I wouldn't criticize
I guess you had your way
You see, I've gotta make you understand
[Pre-Chorus]
I know it sounds a foolish thing to say
But it don't matter, baby
'Cause today's another day
[Chorus]
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
[Verse 2]
Remember, tonight we're gonna run till dawn
Remember, tonight we're gonna say it
We'll never stop, we got a good thing goin' on
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you've heard it all before
But I really need you, darlin'
Every day, I need you more
[Chorus]
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
[Post-Chorus]
Can you understand? (Yes, I understand)
Can you feel it's right? (I know it is)
Will you be the same? (I'll do it all again)
Hoo, hoo
Hoo, ha, hoo, ha
Hoo, ha, hoo, ha, hoo
[Verse 3]
It's been a year now and it's gettin' so much better
Came home without a word
'Though everybody said, "You'll soon forget her"
[Pre-Chorus]
They couldn't see and they just didn't understand
And lookin' in the mirror
There were fools at either hand
[Chorus]
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
And let me see
[Post-Chorus]
Can you understand? (Yes, I understand)
Can you feel it's right? (I know it is)
Will you be the same? (I'll do it all again)
Ooh, ah, ooh, ah
Ooh, ah, ooh, ah
Ooh, ah, ooh, ah, ooh
[Verse 4]
How many days have I been waitin' there to tell you?
I really can't believe
We're walkin' out into the world tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
We'll do it all again until the break of light
And the feeling in your heart
Will soon be shinin' in your eyes
[Chorus]
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
And let me see
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
Shine on me
You shine a little love on my life
Oh, oh, oh
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
And let me see (Woo)
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
Shi-i-ine
You shine a little love on my life
E-L-O
You shine a little love on my life (Woo)
And let me see (Woo)
[Outro]

On the Run Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Whatever I do, wherever I go
The same afterglow is keepin' me low
(D-d-d-don't wanna lose it)
But don't wanna stay here too long
[Verse 2]
They see you go by, I tell you no lie
You're up in the sky, make everyone cry
(D-d-d-don't wanna lose it)
But don't wanna stay around here
[Chorus]
I'm on the run again
I'm on the run again
But it's like what they say
When it happens this way
You gotta do it again and again
[Verse 3]
I hear them talkin' and they go on and on
They think that nothing is wrong
And so they just carry on about you
(D-d-d-don't wanna lose it)
But I gotta move out of here
[Verse 4]
I see them waiting there for most of the day
I know you asked them to stay
But they just won't go away
(D-d-d-don't wanna lose it)
But I gotta do it again
[Chorus]
I'm on the run again
I'm on the run again
But it's like what they say
When it happens this way
You gotta do it again and again
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 5]
I know it ain't real, but when you are near
You're saying the things that I wanna hear
(D-d-d-don't wanna lose it)
But I gotta do it again
[Chorus]
I'm on the run again
I'm on the run again
But it's like what they say
When it happens this way
You gotta do it again and again
[Chorus]
I'm on the run again
I'm on the run again
But it's like what they say
When it happens this way
You gotta do it again and again
[Instrumental Segue]
[Outro]
Run around, gotta go, gotta run around
Run around, gotta go, gotta run
Run around, gotta go, gotta run around
Run around, gotta go, gotta run
Woman, I gotta move around
Woman, I gotta get away
Woman, I gotta move around
[Instrumental Outro]
