Shining Path (3:09) Lyrics - Singles - Happy Head

(Bill Clift/Carl L. Marsh) 

you say how high the moon is 

my pride bought with a kiss 

so soon under your motion 

my world ceased to exist 

if you want to know 

here is my confession 

i was a man in the grip of obsession 

now you ought to know 

i made a big decision 

more that a man i'm a man 

with a mission 

here it is my shining path 

pale fire your one desire come true 

cool thrill a wish fulfilled 

take a trip from your head 

to your heart 

on the shining path 

you'll know when this is over 

one sign will say believe 

just when you're so uncertain 

you'll ask and you'll receive 

now is when you show 

a gesture of contrition 

this kind of love 

is the modern condition 

this could be a blow 

to my way of thinking 

pride rising as the moon is sinking
