Shine a Little Love Lyrics
Although the things you've done I wouldn't criticize,
I guess you had your way,
You see I gotta make you understand,
I know it sounds a foolish thing to say,
But it don't matter baby 'cos today's another day.
Chorus:
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life and let me see
Remember, tonight we're gonna run till dawn,
Remember, tonight we're gonna say,
We'll never stop we got a good thing goin' on,
I know you've heard it all before,
But I really need you darlin' every day I need you more.
Chorus: repeat
Can you understand,
(Yes I understand)
Can you feel it's right,
(I know it is)
Will you be the same,
(I'll do it all again)
It's been a year now and it's getting so much better,
You came home without a word,
Though everybody said you'll soon forget her,
They couldn't see and they just didn't understand,
And lookin' in the mirror there were fools at either hand
Chorus: repeat
Can you understand,
(Yes I understand)
Can you feel it's right,
(I know it is)
Will you be the same,
(I'll do it all again)
How many days had I been waiting there to tell you,
I really can't believe,
We're walking out into the world tonight,
We'll do it all again until the break of light,
And the feelin' in your heart will soon be shinin' in your eyes
Chorus: repeat
I guess you had your way,
You see I gotta make you understand,
I know it sounds a foolish thing to say,
But it don't matter baby 'cos today's another day.
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life
You shine a little love on my life and let me see
Remember, tonight we're gonna say,
We'll never stop we got a good thing goin' on,
I know you've heard it all before,
But I really need you darlin' every day I need you more.
(Yes I understand)
Can you feel it's right,
(I know it is)
Will you be the same,
(I'll do it all again)
You came home without a word,
Though everybody said you'll soon forget her,
They couldn't see and they just didn't understand,
And lookin' in the mirror there were fools at either hand
(Yes I understand)
Can you feel it's right,
(I know it is)
Will you be the same,
(I'll do it all again)
I really can't believe,
We're walking out into the world tonight,
We'll do it all again until the break of light,
And the feelin' in your heart will soon be shinin' in your eyes

Wasn't this written as a disco song? I think I read somewhere
Oh, it's an extremely disco-ish song.
Jeff Lynne has remarked that the title of this album, "Discovery", could also be read as "Disco Very."
Jeff discusses how when you are in love with someone, and you go through rough times there is always a positive outcome. As the day goes by the love increases and everything is left aside only for that special someone, you know? you just gotta do everything it takes even RUNNING TILL DAWN!
Love this song!
Love this song, too, Stagnate. Upbeat and exciting.
Ugghh! Hate this song. My least favorite ELO song. Vapid and boring.
