Shine A Different Way Lyrics

Patty Griffin Shine A Different Way

I'm gonna let it be the field
The one that rain forgot
I'm gonna let it be the summer
I'm gonna let it be your face
The one that ran away
I'm gonna let it be forever
I'm gonna let it rain and hail
Let the rusty nail
No longer hold this world together

I'm gonna let it be the sun
In more ways than one
Shine a different way tomorrow
Shine a different way tomorrow

I'm gonna let it be the moon
Let it play the tune
The one that keeps repeating
I'm gonna let it be your will
Let it have your thrill
If that's what you are needing
I'm gonna let it start again
Gonna let it chase the wind
With my arms stretched out before me
Gonna let it look at me
As I am sleeping in the dark
And love me like a baby

I'm gonna let it be the sun
In more ways than one
Run out of its horizon
I'm gonna let it be the night
For I have had my day
Dancing at the back door
I'm gonna let it hear the prayer
No matter who is there
No matter who is listening
I'm gonna let the dream tell me
What it has always known
The moonlight and the glistening
The moonlight and the glistening
The moonlight and the glistening waves
