The Shining of Things Lyrics

by David Sylvian

Take My word for it
This never should have happened
What in the world d'ya think
Got into me

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e72491-david_sylvian~the_shining_of_things_lyrics.html ]
We fire at will
And as we watch the pieces shatter
We find were closer
Than we've ever been

She calls my name and I come running
I have lost the voice I listened too
And in the blindness
As my world stops turning
Theres a sadness like I never knew
But I still see the shining of things

As the morning breaks
It hardly seems to matter
I hear a shallowness
In everything I say

We've played the night out
In all too familiar fashion
To wear the heart-ache
Through another day

She calls my name and I come running
I have lost the voice I listened too
And there's a stillness now
The rain's stopped falling

Theres a sadness like I never knew
But I see the shining of things
