Lyrics
You took on more than most could handle
You faced challenges that exceeded the capacity of many
Wore it like a badge of grace
You carried those challenges with a sense of honor and dignity
You lit the world from your own candle
You illuminated the world with your unique light
Left a mark you can't erase
You left an indelible mark that cannot be erased
And now when I look up at the sky
When I gaze at the sky
I see a star I recognize
I see a star that I can identify
Shine on my friend
Continue to shine, my friend
Raise your voice upon the wind
Let your voice resonate through the wind
Yeah this is goodbye but I know it ain't the end
This is a farewell, but I believe it's not the ultimate conclusion
Shine on my friend
Continue to shine, my friend
There is a light that led your vision
There's a guiding light that directed your perspective
Saw your whole way through the pain
You persevered through suffering
You were a lioness for your children
You were fiercely protective as a lioness for your children
They'll carry on your name
They will carry forward your legacy
And now when I look up at the sky
When I look up at the sky
I'll see a star I recognize
I'll see a star that I can recognize
Shine on my friend
Continue to shine, my friend
Raise your voice upon the wind
Let your voice echo in the wind
Yeah this is goodbye but I know it ain't the end
This is a farewell, but I believe it's not the ultimate conclusion
Shine on my friend
Continue to shine, my friend
I know you're looking down from somewhere
I am certain you are observing from somewhere above
I'm sure there's laughter in your eyes
I imagine there is joy in your gaze
'Cause when I look up at the sky
Because now, as I look at the sky
Now there's a star I recognize
There's a star that I can recognize
Shine on my friend
Continue to shine, my friend
Raise your voice upon the wind
Let your voice resonate through the wind
Yeah this is goodbye but I know it ain't the end
This is a farewell, but I believe it's not the ultimate conclusion
Shine on my friend
Continue to shine, my friend
Shine on my friend
