Light A Candle

Burn away the shadow to their light
Shine a little hope into the night
Reaching out into the world
Throw them a rope and never let go
Even when they start to slide away

You haven't lived until you've loved
So to everyone who's never lived
Find that blaze inside yourself
And burn it for the world to see
To revel in its glowing glory

This love inside of us
Is what people are made from
So don't be afraid to light a candle of love
And let it burn
Let it flicker through the world

No matter how much it may hurt
This life's what we have to live
So light a candle of light
To burn away all the pain
And chase away the shadows that haunt

A fire, like life
Nurture it and it will grow
So easily extinguished
To turn away the darkness, instead
Why don't you light a candle?

For everyone who's ever hurt
For everyone that's ever cried
For everyone who's suffering
For everyone
Light a candle
And let it burn.
