Lighting Candles
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Trying not to hope too hard for what I want
Trying not to go too far with all the dreaming
Oh, the disappointment, so hard to handle
I'm still in the dark, lighting candles
Late at night I lie awake, think I should go
Catch a train to stranger towns
Where no one knows me
Oh, the disappointment, so hard to handle
I'm still in the dark, lighting candles
Oh, the company you keep, and things you do
SOmething in my heart will not give up on you
Now that I have got somewhere, where will I go?
Love's a train to city lights
Where someone knows you
Oh, the disappointment, so hard to handle
I'm still in the dark, lighting candles
I'm still in the dark, lighting candles
