Keep It Shining on the Inside
Keep It Shining on the Inside

You hear people talking about the weather
How the clouds up above are covering the sky
How the winter´s too cold or the rain´s too wet
Or the simple fact that the Sun doesn´t shine

You gotta keep it shining on the inside
You gotta keep it shining on the inside
Take the little you´ve got and you make it shine
You gotta keep it shining on the inside

There´s people talking of their worries
How the burdens of life are wearing them down
Can´t find no work and their money is no good
They´re sick of being pushed around

You gotta keep it shining on the inside
You gotta keep it shining on the inside
Take the little you´ve got and you make it shine
You gotta keep it shining on the inside

Sometimes it feels like it´s only going down
Sometimes it looks like there´s now way around
And all you can see is the darkness that surrounds you

You gotta keep it shining on the inside
You gotta keep it shining on the inside
Take the little you´ve got and you make it shine
You gotta keep it shining on the inside
