A Thousand Candles Burning

START

A Thousand Candles Burning

How I hunger for your kisses, and to lose myself in you
To stroke your velvety skin, is all I have to do
For you to mesmerize me - can't get you off my mind
You take me to a place where worries are left behind

Sweetheart your eyes shine, like a thousand candles burning
They fuel the flame within my heart, and create this thing called yearning

No amount of money could ever take the place
Of lying very close to you and gazing at your face
It so soft and trouble free - a mirror of your mind
You make hours seem like minutes and help me to unwind

Sweetheart, your eyes shine, like a thousand candles burning
They fuel the flame within my heart, and create this thing called yearning

When you gave me that ring of gold - a symbol of your love
I understood there'd be times, when you took to the skies above
Love is to do with letting to - setting your soul mate free
To grow and evolve as time goes by, so that each can 'be'

Sweetheart, your eyes shine, like a thousand candles burning
They fuel the flames within my heart, and create this thing called yearning

Still, I hunger for your kisses and to lose myself in you
I remember all the little things that we loved to do
How I long to hold you - all through the night
And to be close to you again, like love birds in flight

Sweetheart, your eyes shine, like a thousand candles burning
They fuel the flame within my heart, and create this thing called yearning.

                                                  oOo
END
