(Dan Tyler)

Life can take your dreams and turn them upside down 
Friends will talk about you when you're not around 
Reality can really cut you down to size 
But don't ever lose that light in your eyes 
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes

People make you promises they'll never keep 
Soon you'll know why people say, 'Talk is cheap!' 
Life resembles one big compromise 
But 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 the judgement day 
When the angels look at you...what will you say? 
They've got a way of knowing who qualifies 
Just let 'em see 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

Don't ever lose that light in your eyes 
Don't ever lose that light in your eyes 
Don't ever lose... 
Don't ever lose..
