Life can take your dreams and turn them upside down Friends will talk about you when you're not around Honesty can really cut you down to size So don't ever lose that light in your eyes Don't ever lose that light in your eyes People make you promises that they'll never keep Soon you'll know why people say talk is cheap Life is just one big compromise Don't ever lose that light in your eyes Don't ever lose that light in your eyes Keep on shining, keep on smiling Don't lose faith and don't lose heart When you're crying just keep trying to remind yourself You're a shining star Yes, you are Somewhere down the line you'll face your judgement day When the angels look at you they will say We've got a way of knowing who qualifies Just let them see that light in your eyes Don't ever lose that light in your eyes go to Keep on shining, then to ending Ending: Don't ever lose that light in your eyes Don't ever lose that light in your eyes Don't ever lo-oo-se that light in your eyes
