Tesla - Shine Away Lyrics






All is well, as it could ever be
All is well, as it could ever be

All is well, as it could ever be
All is well, as it could ever, it could ask for

Me, I told myself that I'd get better, and I knew I would
But I said that a thousand times
Said the same in the letters that I wrote to you
Guess you thought it's that same old line

Ooh I know, but the rest of my soul it don't ever need a reason why
Told myself I'd get over it and over you, never will till the day I die

This won't take long, shouldn't take but a minute
I got you right here in my heart
It's only human, it's only natural, it's love or animal
There you are, so far away, but instead I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away, one look at you and I can see the light of day
Shine away, shine away, 'cos I'm afraid of what could happen
If you shine my way, don't you shine my way

Now that it's over, I ask myself the reason why
That [was in the time with you on my mind]
Told myself I'd forget about, forget you
Now it's changed it don't feel so right

Ooh I know, but the rest of my soul it don't ever need a reason why
Love you so and always will, love to love you even still
Now there you are, so far away, all the while I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away, one look at you and I can see the light of day
Shine away, shine away, 'cos I'm afraid of what could happen
If you shine my way
Shine away, shine away, I got somebody sittin' home, waitin' for me yeah
Shine away, shine away, you make it hard for somebody
Who don't want to play, and I want to play

[Solo]

I told myself that I'd get better, and I knew I would
But I said that ten thousand times
Said the same [if time don't make that call for you]
Guess you thought it's that same old line

This won't take long, shouldn't take but a minute
I got you right here in my heart
It's only human, it's only natural, it's love or animal
Now there you are, so far away, all the while I got it right here in my face

Shine away, shine away, one look at you and I can see the light of day
Shine away, shine away, 'cos I'm afraid of what could happen
If you shine my way
Shine away, shine away, I got somebody sittin' home and waitin' for me
Shine away, shine away, shine away, shine away, shine away

Shine away, shine away, shine away, shine away, shine away

    Had the honour of seeing his band live in their prime. For any aspiring young band that wants to rock hard with style and power. Listen to 3.44 and 4.44 and learn what it`s all about.

That will cause me to lose my girl i have at home, the one i'm with now. but that sexual tension is like so powerful! i've been there! this song is so fucking great, and it slaps me upside my head with it's true lyrics! Fuck!

  28. n.... ....

    Great song!!!

  29. 5.... ....

    It's too bad Tommy couldn't ever get his life straightened out, because this band has not been the same without him. Tommy was the metal guy in the band, and when that side was mixed with Frank's bluesy side, it was pure magic. MAKIN' MAGIC !!!! No disrespect to Dave Rude, but Tommy was the man.

    5.... ....

    im 44 and learned every song from these guys from mechanical to reel. Tommy is the man....NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE HIS HISTORY FROM US.

    5.... ....

    @500erider  Oh gawd dude don't ever say that on the Tesla fan facebook page. You'll be ostricized immediately! They think all is well and perfect and this opinion is tired and old. But unfortunately for some the truth is hard to accept. I agree 100% without Skeoch this band isn't the same. It's all about chemistry and while Dave Rude is a phenominal guitar player all he's really doing is a Tommy impersonation.

    5.... ....

    @Maxharddrive64 trust me I'm not knocking Dave one bit, I am a guitarist myself. I still love the band but tommy deserves his due as,well as everyone despite any personal disagreements within the band past n present. Call it whatever you want, it's still just music to me.

    5.... ....

    Me too, (I play also and have met JK, Tommy and Frank more than one time. Totally awesome guys and super down to earth.) So as a guitarist you can hear it in the music and by no means am i doggin on Dave Rude either. 

    5.... ....

    "Forever more" and "Simplicity" are great albuns, Tommy was a perfect match with Frank, but unfortunely he had a drug addiction, and couldn't control it while being on tour

  30. m.... ....

    Thanks for putting Shine Away, one of my fave Tesla songs, and all I can find are live vids. This is awesome!

  31. M.... ....

    I LOVE this band!!!! I've seen them up close and personal a time or two! One of my favs!

  32. T.... L....

    Real Music!!!! By a "Real" band
