"Shimmer"
Soul's Core
Sharing with us what he knows"Shimmer"
Soul's Core
Shining eyes are big and blue
And all around him water flows
This world to him is new
This world to him is new
To touch his face
To kiss his smile
New eyes see no race
The essence of a child
The essence
He's born to shimmer
He's born to shine
He's born to radiate
He's born to live
He's born to love
But we'll teach him how to hate
True loving is a rock
Smoothed over - a stream
And no ticking of a clock
Truely measures what that means
Truely measures what that means
And this thing we call our time
Heard of brilliant one say
She said you know it's crazy
How I wanna try and capture mine
I think I love this woman's way
I think I love this woman's
The way she shimmers
The way she shines
The way she radiates
The way she lives
The way she loves
The way she never hates
Sometimes I think of all this that can surround me
I know where all this be in mine
Then she kisses me
And she wraps herself around me
She gives me love
She gives me time
I feel fine...
I feel fine...
The time I cannot change
So here's to looking back
You know, I drink a whole bottle of my pride
And I toast to change
To keep these demons off my back
Just get these demons off my back
'Cause I
I want to shimmer
I want to shine
I want to radiate
I want to live
I want to love
I want to try and learn
How not to hate
Try not to hate
We're born to shimmer
We're born to shine
We're born to radiate
We're born to live
We're born to love
We're born to never hate
