LYRICS:
(John Field, Paul Field)
AND THE DEVIL CALLED ME OUT
AND THE DEVIL SAW MY NAME
AND HE SOWED THE SEEDS OF DOUBT
AND TOOK THE SHINE IN MY DAY AWAY
YOU SHIELDED MY HEART
AND I REMEMBERED HOW YOU’D SAY, YOU’D SAY
IT’S THIS WAY, TO LOVE AND HAPPINESS
THE ANGELS POINTED YOU OUT
IN THE CHOIR OF THE BRAVE
LOOKING LIKE JOAN OF ARC
SAY YOU LOVE ME IF YOU’RE GAME ENOUGH
SO I STEPPED UP TO THE MARK
SAID FOREVER AND FOR ALWAYS
ITS THIS WAY TO LOVE AND HAPPINESS
SOLELY, ONLY, SOLELY LOVE ME ONLY
SOLELY, ONLY, WE WILL BE,
WE WILL BE, WE WILL BE, WE WILL BE
SOLELY, ONLY, SOLELY LOVE ME ONLY
SOLELY, ONLY, WE WILL BE,
WE WILL BE, WE WILL BE
25 YEARS HAVE GONE BY
30 YEARS HAVE GONE BY
THERE’S A LIGHT THAT SHINES AHEAD
SHINING BRIGHT DON’T YOU FEAR TO TREAD
AND ON THE DAY THAT I’LL DAY
I’LL POINT TO YOU AND I’LL SAY
ITS THIS WAY TO LOVE AND HAPPINESS
LOVE AND HAPPINESS
LOVE AND HAPPINESS
LOVE AND HAPPINESS
TALKIN ABOUT LOVE AND HAPPINESS
COME ON, SHE SHINES JUST LIKE THE MORNING SUN
SHE SHINES JUST LIKE MY FAVOURITE SONG
SHE SHINES WITH LOVE AND HAPPINESS
SAY IT AGAIN, SAY IT AGAIN, SAY IT AGAIN, COME ON!
SHE SHINES JUST LIKE THE MORNING SUN
SHE SHINES JUST LIKE MY FAVOURITE SONG
SHE SHINES WITH LOVE AND HAPPINESS
LOVE AND HAPPINESS
