Shining Through the Night

[Intro]
Dusty roads and faded signs, thought I’d walk alone for miles
Silent nights, empty skies, hiding pain behind a smile

[Verse 1]
Walking through the shadowed woods, my heart feels lost, uncertain
Every step a little bruised, my hopes seem distant, uncertain
Thought I’d be forever lost, in the quiet of the night
Then you appeared, a gentle glow, turned darkness into light

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I didn’t see you coming, like sunrise after rain
A sprinkle of salvation, healing all my pain

[Chorus]
Life’s a lonely road sometimes, winding through the storm
But you showed up like dawning, made me feel warm
Things do get better, even when it’s hard to see
With a little love, a little hope, you set my soul free

[Verse 2]
Miles of shadows, scars I hide, questions in my mind
But your laugh, like a melody, helps me leave the dark behind
Every broken piece I had, you start to mend
Promising that darkness won’t win, that’s where new hope begins

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I didn’t see you coming, like sunrise after rain
A sprinkle of salvation, healing all my pain

[Chorus]
Life’s a lonely road sometimes, winding through the storm
But you showed up like dawning, made me feel warm
Things do get better, even when it’s hard to see
With a little love, a little hope, you set my soul free

[Bridge]
Now I’m walking brighter, with you by my side
Turned my tears to laughter, let my spirit ride
Every day’s a miracle, in your shining light
Life’s a beautiful song, singing through the night

[Outro]
So I’ll keep on this journey, with you leading the way
Knowing that tomorrow’s just a dawn away
Life’s a shining road now, with love as my guide
Even in the darkness, I’m alive, I’m alive
