A Song For A Sunday.

Love Shine a Light.

Lyrics: English rock singer-songwriter and guitarist Kimberley Charles Rew, a member of rock band Katrina and the Waves.
Vocals: British rock band Katrina and the Waves. The song represented the United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest back in 1997.

Love Shine a Light.

Love shine a light in every corner of my heart.
Let the love light carry, let the love light carry.
Light up the magic in every little part,
Let our love shine a light in every corner of our hearts.
Love shine a light in every corner of my dreams,
Let the love light carry, let the love light carry,
Like the mighty river, flowing from the stream,
Let our love shine a light in every corner of my dreams.
And we’re all gonna shine a light together,
All shine a light to light the way,
Brothers and sisters, in every little part,
Let our love shine a light in every corner of our hearts.
Love shine a light in every corner of the world.
Let the love light carry, let the love light carry.
Light up the magic, for every boy and girl,
Let our love shine a light in every corner of the world.
And we’re all gonna shine a light together,
All shine a light to light the way,
Brothers and sisters, in every little part,
Let our love shine a light, in every corner of our hearts.
And we’re all gonna shine a light together,
All shine a light to light the way,
Brothers and sisters, in every little part,
Let our love shine a light in every corner of our hearts.
Shine a light in every corner of our hearts.

Loving Her Was Easier Than Anything I’ll Ever Do Again.

Loving Her Was Easier (Than Anything I’ll Ever Do Again).

Lyrics and Vocals: The late great, American country music singer, songwriter and actor Kristoffer (Kris) Kristofferson. (June 22nd, 1936 – September 28th, 2024).

Loving Her Was Easier (Than Anything I’ll Ever Do Again).

I have seen the morning burning golden on the mountain in the skies.
Aching with the feeling of the freedom of an eagle when she flies.
Turning on the world the way she smiled upon my soul as I lay dying.
Healing as the colours in the sunshine and the shadows of her eyes.
Waking in the morning to the feeling of her fingers on my skin.
Wiping out the traces of the people and the places that I’ve been.
Teaching me that yesterday was something that I never thought of trying.
Talking of tomorrow and the money, love, and time we had to spend.
Loving her was easier than anything I’ll ever do again.

Coming close together with a feeling that I’ve never know before in my time.
She ain’t ashamed to be a woman or afraid to be a friend.
I don’t know the answer to the easy way she opened every door in my mind.
But dreaming was as easy as believing it was never gonna end,
And loving her was easier than anything I’ll ever do again.
mmmmm……………………………………
