The song, "Shining Star" is on the album, These Good Days Last by Aware of the Bear

lyrics

Shining Star (Song for Tristan)

You are, shining star and you light the way

Any life without you, makes no sense to me
When I think about the end, it’s difficult to breathe
We we’re made for each other, we get on famously
When you shine directly at me, I reflect your steady beam

When we met each other, arms we’re open wide
I came upon a living sun, but froze up as I tried
When I saw your eyes, the wonder of it all
The importance of our sacred bond, made my fear appear so small

You are, shining star and you light the way

Never did I ever want to change things
I never tried to make it right
Never did I ever want to rearrange things
‘Cause right away I saw the light
Right away I saw the light

You are, shining star and you light the way

We started on rocky ground, I didn’t know where to step
You danced around the troubled sound of the world that we left
I came from the eastern side, through night without rest
You were born fully formed with the wisdom of the west

On the day of creation we were put in place
The orbit of two satellites only heaven can replace
Come away you said, “to the waters and the wild”
You took my hand, to understand, as if I were the child

You are, shining star and you light the way

"Aware of the Bear writes pop gems with melodies reminiscent of Wilco and Big Star - with maybe a little Badly Drawn Boy thrown in for good measure. The horn section driven Unified Theory is a great example of his retro-leaning production skills, intelligent lyrics, and vocal style." ... more
