[Verse 1]
Well, sitting on a stone, sitting all alone
Daises are rolling down the mountain
Well, see the lonesome tramp, who's living in the damp
Nobody's in the valley
[Chorus]
Shine on, shine on, Sun
Oh, it's so cold right here
Shine on, shine on, Sun
Shine on all night long
All night long
[Verse 2]
Daydreams are of silent blue
Icy wings will carry you
Well, Midnight Sun will never shine
Just ravings of a fool you think
And laugh about him all the time
[Chorus]
Shine on, shine on, Sun
Oh, it's so cold right here
Shine on, shine on, Sun
Oh, shine on all night long
All night long
All night long, yeah
[Bridge]
White pale velvet Autumn Sun will fade away
Forgotten life will finish now in endless grey
Some days like drifting haze
Some days like glowing blaze
Some days like tides of life
Some days like tides of life
White pale velvet Autumn Sun will fade away
Forgotten life will finish now in endless grey
Some days like drifting haze
Some days like glowing blaze
Some days like tides of life
Some days like tides of life
[Interlude]
Yeah
Yeah
[Verse 3]
Staggerin' along a tropic highway
Crazy lights are whirling 'round and 'round
Hell or heaven, night or day?
Burning fingers push the Sun away
[Chorus]
Shine on, shine on, Sun
Shine on all night long
Shine on, shine on, Sun
Shine on all night long
