Lyrics

Candlelight

I can’t hold you tight for as long as you’d like

For that inevitable day will come

When we will flicker and go out just like the candlelight

As our love will hang out to die

Our love is like, the candlelight

I can hold your hang, only if you understand

I can't hold your hand forever

A grip on life’s a grip on death

And I’m tryin’ to be a man

Trying hard to do the best I can

Our love is like, the candlelight
