Candles

I'll blow the candles out
Wish for a different life.
We'll say familiar words
And feel the weight of time.
Lay your body, down to rest.
And blow the candles out
Wish for a different life.
Keep on crawlin'.
Here's to another year
That came and passed on by.
And left you jealous here
Because your wings wouldn't fly.
It's closing fast, it's closing fast.
Here's to another year
And to the same old fears.
But you were my sunshine.
You were my sunshine.
You were my sunshine, it's
so good to see you.
Keep on crawlin'.
Keep on crawlin'.
Blow the candles out
Wish for a different life.
I'll blow the candles out
Wish for a different life.
But you were my sunshine.
You were my sunshine.
You were my sunshine, it's
soo good to see you.
You make it alright
Cause you were my sunshine.
You were my sunshine, it's
so good to see you.
Keep on crawlin'.
Keep on crawlin'.
