Brief Candles Lyrics

Brief Candles lyrics

There she sits her hands are held
Tight around her glass
She only needs to
be alone
She knows this mood will pass
To realize that she was
strong
And he too weak to stay
And to realize that she is better off this
way

Brief candles in her mind
Bright and tiny gems of memory
Brief
candles burn so fine
Leaves a light inside where she can see
What makes
it all worthwhile
Her sadness makes her smile...

His alone girl fades
away
Left out on a limb
Finds he needs her more because
She's no more
need for him
He understood so very well
The things she had to say
Soon
he'll understand that he is better off this way

Brief candles in his
mind
Bright and tiny gems of memory
Brief candles burn so fine
Leaves
a light inside where he can see
What makes it all worthwhile
His sadness
makes him smile...

In the corner see his face
The man just sips his
drink
Not one feeling does he show 
Far too numb to think
He does not
say a single word
No word of love to say
Maybe he will soon believe he's
better off this way...

Brief candles in his mind
Bright and tiny gems
of memory
Brief candles burn so fine
Leaves a light inside where he can
see
What makes it all worthwhile
His sadness makes him smile...
