Keep the Candle Burning by Me Not You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Your mother’s wise
And father’s waiting
The candle’s bright
But it shines for no one
Some paradise
I'm a fallen ceres
We might as well keep
The candle burning on

[Chorus]
You're the cure for the heartache
You're the light on a dark day
We'll keep the candle burning for you
You're the hope for the hopeless
Innocent as the first breath
We'll keep the candle burning for you

[Verse 2]
How many stars
Light up the night?
There's one that's meant for
You and I
Turn off the lights
And draw the curtains
Be sure to keep
The candle burning
[Chorus]
You're the cure for the heartache
You're the light on a dark day
We'll keep the candle burning for you
You're the hope for the hopeless
Innocent as the first breath
We'll keep the candle burning for you

[Bridge]
You can walk the road in your own time
If we light the way
Maybe you can find us
Till we see your face in the sunlight
We will stay up late
And keep the candle burning on

[Chorus]
You're the cure for the heartache
You're the light on a dark day
We'll keep the candle burning for you
You're the hope for the hopeless
Innocent as the first breath
We'll keep the candle burning for you

[Outro]
Your mother’s wise
And father’s waiting
The candle’s bright
But it shines for no one
Some paradise
I'm a fallen ceres
We might as well keep
The candle burning on
