  • I don't wanna be adored
    Don't wanna be first in line
    Or make myself heard
    I'd like to bring a little light
    To shine a light on your life
    To make you feel loved

    No, don't wanna be the only one you know
    I wanna be the place you call home

    I lay myself down
    To make it so, but you don't want to know
    I give much more
    Than I'd ever ask for

    Will you see me in the end
    Or is it just a waste of time
    Trying to be your friend
    Just shine, shine, shine
    Shine a little light
    Shine a light on my life
    Warm me up again

    Fool, I wonder if you know yourself at all
    You know that it could be so simple

    I lay myself down
    To make it so, but you don't want to know
    You take much more
    Than I'd ever ask for

    Say a word or two to brighten my day
    Do you think that you could see your way

    To lay yourself down
    And make it so, but you don't want to know
    You take much more
    Than I'd ever ask for Writer/s: RICHARD DAVID HUGHES, TIMOTHY JAMES RICE-OXLEY, TOM CHAPLIN
