I waste away my tears
Cause I can't cry no more
No more no less
I said, my brothers drowning
Like a star, baby, like a slower suicide,
Me I gave mine away.
[Chorus]
I give to you my heartshine
I give to you my heartshine
I give to you my heartshine only for you
A sad hello to death
I'm a stubborn goat on trial:
No more no less.
I said time will tell
If love is gonna have the strength to push it
The strength to push my pain away.
I give to you my heartshine
I give to you my heartshine
Love flourishes
Love flourishes,
You've gotta value love supreme
Cause I can't cry no more
No more no less
I said, my brothers drowning
Like a star, baby, like a slower suicide,
Me I gave mine away.
[Chorus]
I give to you my heartshine
I give to you my heartshine
I give to you my heartshine only for you
A sad hello to death
I'm a stubborn goat on trial:
No more no less.
I said time will tell
If love is gonna have the strength to push it
The strength to push my pain away.
I give to you my heartshine
I give to you my heartshine
Love flourishes
Love flourishes,
You've gotta value love supreme

There seems to be some connection throughout the album of stars and shining and in this song there's heartshine. So it seems that stars represent love and when Xana's a stargazer, she's gazing at Wood's love, or his star. Then in this song he's giving these people his heartshine, which is his love. It's pretty obvious once you actually look at a few of the lyric but it's a cool metaphor coz it's like when you're loved you're in the light so I thought I'd point it out. I can't believe more people don't comment on Mother Love Bone.
