Even though the initial pain is gone
The hurting never stops
It\'s been how long...?
Seems like just yesterday but
It doesn\'t matter how long
Because it hurts every day
The person that I love...
Has forever gone away.
How can people say
That time heals all wounds?
How can they say that...
When it still hurts so much
Each and every day?
So what would they say...
If we could get letters from the dead?
People say death is painless
\"It doesn\'t hurt!\"
Whom do they mean...
When they say that?
Do they mean the one that died?
Surely they forgot, then...
The ones they leave behind....
So light a candle
Let it burn
Find the handle
Hope it\'s cold.
Lost for words
In the dancing flame
Who\'s mind wouldn\'t wander
Back to the warm memories it brings?
Side to side, up and down....
Back to when we went to town
Small things to remind us, make us think
Of those who left
From our lives or from everyone\'s
A candle for memory\'s sake
As my tears threaten to break...
I\'ve only got 6 candles left to burn
I hope this tide will turn
Maybe something in the dancing flame
Is what helps take the pain away
But I\'ve only got 6 candles left
And it hurts so
\'Cos I can\'t let you go
Not yet
Don\'t fret
I\'m trying....so hard
Maybe I must find my way
Through the pain, wane away
Take these 6 candles
Light \'em up
Then help me walk away.
