Lyrics

I got a girl she shines like neon signs
I got a clock, and every hour it chimes
and when I look at you I’m always smiling
and everything is good without even trying
Uh huh, oh yeah

I like to swim; I’d like to live near the sea
I guess you know, I’d like you to live there with me
we can have bonfires on the sand
we can walk under the stars hand in hand
Uh huh, for sure

I wrote this to say
you brighten up every day

shine shine bright eyes
shine shine my firefly
star shine treasure of mine
I treasure you all of the time

I got a girl, she shines like sapphires and diamonds
when I go mad, her arms are my own asylum
when I look at you I’m always smitten
be my puppy dog, I’ll be your kitten
uh huh, right on

I wrote this to say
you lighten every day

shine shine bright eyes
shine shine my firefly
sunshine treasure of mine
I’d pleasure you all of the time

got a guitar, or two, I love to strum it
and if you like this song, you just might hum it

I wrote this today
recorded it for you to play

shine shine bright eyes
hmm hmm hmmm

brightest star, brighter than the sun
I like you more than anyone else
brightest star in the milky way
come on over, brighten up the day

shine shine bright eyes
shine shine bright eyes
shine shine bright eyes
shine shine shine

Your cheery songs are so sunny!
I have a hard time relating, but I'm better for trying to :)

The sincerity of different lines like "star shine treasure of mine" are winsome. I like the doubling of the vocals and the occasional moments they part ways to sing close harmonies. Favorite line: "when I go mad, her arms are my own asylum" Would download if the button were there.

Bright and shiny first line--neon signs are a great start. Other hilarious yet evocative metaphors: "her arms are my own asylum." The vocal is really winsome, young and free. In fact, innocent love permeates this fun and lovely song.

Great song to listen to on Valentine’s Day. Love the line “when I go mad…”. Very cool chorus. Loved it.

It’s like watching someone manoeuvre through a minefield! The lyric remain elusive slipping an and sliding just out of reach! I love the guitalele it holds it. So catchy so interesting!
