Candle In the Dark
She’s a Candle
Glowing in the dark…
A lighthouse
Pointing to the shore…
Through gloomy days that seem so dark
Through tempests that rage and pour
She’s the Oasis
That quenches my thirst…
The passion
Burning in my veins…
My heart swells within my chest
My passion, my pleasure, my joy, my pain
She’s the mystery
I never can solve…
The balm
That soothes my tears…
My goal, my zeal, my sole resolve
With her I mock and taunt my fears
She’s the kiss
I can’t forget …
Yet the very one
That broke my heart…
My love, my soul, she did reject
My dreams, my hopes, she knocked them flat
