Rappers, troubadours sneaking in the back door
Crazy fortune teller drinking on the kitchen floor all night
Racing down division at a hundred and three
Her singing, it was rapture, it was ecstasy, oh yeahMadam Lisa of the stars
Messenger of hope
Yeah, she was the messenger ofGuiding light and lovin' inspiration
She could break you down with sheer imagination, oh yeah
Her old man was so cruel and vicious
One day he went too far and Lord he got hisMadam Lisa of the stars
Messenger of hope
Messenger of love
Shine your light onMakin love in the setting sun
Shes looking at me like I am the one
Wild and free but with nowhere to run
Shine your light onTrapped, the broken, the innocent ones
Baby, we were over before we'd begun
Ill be running for you till my freedom comes
Freedom comesShine on, shine on
Shine on, shine onWhen she pulled the trigger
I could hear it ring out for miles and milesFrom the circus where we grew up
Your head turned to me
And I was caught up in the light
Shaken by the soundThe confession in her eyes
From when we met
And I was sentenced for life
I know we would never forgetMaking love in the setting sun
She looking at me like I am the one
Wild and free but with nowhere to run
Shine your light onTrapped, the broken, the innocent ones
Baby, we were over before we'd begun
Ill be running for you till our freedom comes
Freedom comes
Shine on
