Sharing with us what he knows
  shining eyes are big and blue
  and all around him water flows
  this world to him is new
  this world to him is new
  to touch a face
  to kiss a smile
  new eyes see no race
  the essence of a child
  the essence
  he's born to shimmer, he's born to shine
  he's born to radiate
  he's born to live, he's born to love
  but we'll teach him not to hate
  true love it is a rock
  smoothed over by a stream
  no ticking of a clock
  truly measures what that means
  truly measures what that means
  and this thing they call our time
  heard a brilliant woman say
  she said you know it's crazy
  how I want to try to capture mine
  I think I love this woman's way
  I think I love this woman's
  way she shimmers, the way she shines
  the way she radiates
  the way she lives, the way she loves
  the way she never hates
  sometimes I think of all of this that can surround me
  I know it all as being mine
  but she kisses me and wraps herself around me
  she gives me love, she gives me time
  and I feel fine
  I feel fine
  but time I cannot change
  so here's to looking back
  you know I drink a whole bottle of my pride
  and I toast to change
  to keep these demons off my back
  just get these demons off my back
  cause I want to shimmer, I want to shine
  I want to radiate
  I want to live, I want to love
  I want to try to learn not to hate
  try not to hate
  we're born to shimmer, we're born to shine
  we're born to radiate
  we're born to live, we're born to love
  we're born to never hate
