A candle in the night, a warming fire

Wherever I go, wherever I go

Wherever I go, I cannot rest

Alone at night, save for loneliness 

So I strike a match, of hopes and dreams

To light a single flame against the dark

To burn with love, emotion, faith

I take a fire with me, in the night

And hold that burning beacon tight

If I will not sleep this winter night

Allow me one warm candle-light
