Lyrics Nova (Shine a Light on Me) - VNV Nation

I long to feel my heart burned open wide, till nothing else remains
Except the fires from which I came
Like parted souls, divided for an age
Awe and wonder I'd embrace and the world anew again

But now, this picture from me fades
From still's cold hand there's no reprieve
Light the fire in me

Shine, shine your light on me
Illuminate me, make me complete

Lay me down, and wash this world from me
Open the skies, and burn it all away
'Cause I've been waiting, all my life just waiting
For you to shine, shine your light on me

I dreamed the world, with my eyes open
But time moved on and then, new worlds begin again

Oh my heart, in this universe so vast
No moment was made to last, so light the fire in me

Shine, shine your light on me
Illuminate me, make me complete
Please shine, shine your light on me
No hesitation, make me complete

Lay me down, and wash this world from me
Open the skies, and burn it all away

'Cause I've been waiting, all my life just waiting
For you to shine, shine your light on me
