I noticed your small shoulders trembling,
But with a light joke I changed the topic
But not tonight
Far away, I felt you were back then,
but now the night sky and you are so close
So melt on into me

Do you think for you I can shine bright?
Tonight I think I can really say how I feel
For you can I shine bright?
For tonight, I don't want to see you cry

I noticed. Your eyes filled with unease
You're acting strong, as you worry about me
But not tonight
Starting now, hold your trembling shoulders close
So small and frail
I want to paint the new you over the old you

For you can I shine bright?
Tonight I think I can really say how I feel
For you can I shine bright?
For tonight, I don't want to see you cry

Do you think for you I can shine bright?
Unusually, you looked strongly up straight ahead
For you can I shine bright?
You laughed with tears shining in your eye
