[ Featuring the Kingfishers ]
In the stories
There was only one princess
When we were children
Playing make-believe
And I was so afraid if wasn't me
The one with all the glory
If you should rise towards those heights
That I would be alone
But look at you now, in the photos
The whole world smiles with you
And the gift you give, to everyone
It's powerful as the sun
You light up the darkness
You light up the darkness
And it's a promise paid in kind
To have your light shine next to mine
My brilliant friend
I could never be envious of you
You know your soul
Is like a mirror to my own
Women in the spotlight, we must bear
Not a blemish or a mark
And trying to be worthy of the gaze
It's tearing us apart
But look at you now, it's not your clothing
Or your make-up makes you beautiful
Your heart brings a spark
From the centre of the sun
You light up the darkness
You light up the darkness
And it's a promise paid in kind
To have your light shine next to mine
Look at the night-time sky
So many stars
So many hearts alight
How they align
And light up the darkness
You light up the darkness
And it's a promise paid in kind
To have your light shine next to mine
Brighter and brighter
Brighter and brighter
Brighter and brighter
Brighter and brighter
