Everything seem simpler by candle-light.
As I lie here in darkness
A flame my only live company
Yours is the face I see
Yours the voice I hear.
My past screams abuse
Through the voice of the present,
But in my mind's eye I'm by your side
Watching you set light to my fears.
Everything seems realer by candle-light.
When I sit amongst the shadows
Your dim light shines all the brighter.
Love comes to my emptiness
A telepathic kiss.
Whispers surround me
Telling of a lonely future,
But in my mind's eye you're by my side
Watching me set light to your troubles.
Everything seems better by candle-light.
As we talk in golden light,
And our hands mould a different version,
Friendship blazes stronger.
Lighting our faces.
As it all goes up in smoke.
