Karaoké In a Country Churchyard (Let Your Love Shine On) Chris De Burgh

In a country churchyard there's a preacher with his people

Gathered all around to join a man and woman

Spring is here and turtle doves are singing from the steeple

Bees are in the flowers growing in the graveyard

And over the hill where the river meets the mill

A lovely girl is coming down to give her hand upon her wedding day

Dressed in simple white and wearing flowers in her hair

Music as she walks slowly to the altar

And picking up his Bible then the preacher turns towards her

Will you take this man to be your wedded husband

To honor and love in the eyes of God above

Now let the people sing with me these words to live forever in your heart

Let your love

Your love shine on shine on

For we are the stars

We are the stars in the sky in the sky

Let your love shine strong

Your love shine strong until the day you fly

Until the day you fly

Fly away

Many years have fallen on that golden country morning

Graveyard's overgrown

The church lies in ruins

Ivy on the walls and ravens wheeling 'round above me as I made my way towards the last remaining headstone

I fell to my knees

Read the lines beneath the leaves

And suddenly it seemed to me

I heard the words like singing in the trees

Let your love

Your love shine on shine on

For we are the stars

We are the stars in the sky in the sky

Let your love shine strong

Your love shine strong until the day you fly

Until the day you fly

Let your love

Your love shine on shine on

For we are the stars

We are the stars in the sky in the sky

Let your love shine strong

Your love shine strong until the day you fly

Until the day you fly

Fly away
