And I will light a candle for you.
To shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew.
Like a beacon in the night
The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way.
Oh, today I light a candle for you.
The seasons come and go, and I’m weary from the change.
I keep on moving on, you know it’s not the same.
And when I’m walking all alone
Do you hear me call your name?
Do your hear me sing the songs we used to sing?
You filled my life with wonder, touched me with surprise,
Always saw that something special deep within your eyes.
And through the good times and the bad,
We carried on with pride.
I hold onto the love and life we knew.
And I will light a candle for you.
To shatter all the darkness and bless the times we knew.
Like a beacon in the night
The flame will burn bright and guide us on our way.
Oh, today I light a candle for you.

I’ve cried a thousand tears for you,
Felt a thousand pains.
Screamed a thousand words for you,
Died a thousand days.
Now I’m empty and black like a hole.
Nothing’s in use, I have nothing to control.
Where my heart once was, is where the hole stays.
With the pieces left in it,
you dropped them in the maze.
Except for a single piece,
The only piece I ever knew.
The piece I can’t let go of,
The small piece of you.
I hold it tight but it’s fading, and wearing away fast.
I have to keep a tight hold of it, I need you to last.
But I know eventually this piece of you,
Will fall from me for days.
Then the piece I held onto so tight,
Will too be lost in the maze.

God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So He wrapped his arms around you,
and whispered, “Come to me”.
You didn’t deserve what you went through,
So He gave you rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful,
He only takes the best
And when I saw you sleeping,
So peaceful and free from pain
I could not wish you back
To suffer that again.

My sadness today knows no bounds
As I sit here attempting to scribble verbs and nouns
I cannot laugh; I sigh and frown
I’m helpless
My thoughts are confused; I can’t think clear
Whilst you are far away, yet physically near
I speak – I do not know if you can hear
I’m helpless
I cannot begin to understand
Why are you being taken from this land?
Have you been selected for some eternal plan?
I’m helpless
And now as the end of your life draws near
I do not know what to do, or say – I fear
That each breath you breathe will be the last I hear
I’m helpless

You made me laugh,
you made me cry,
you made me sit and wonder why.
you were the one,
you were important,
now your just a memory.
you use to drink,
you use to drive,
you never thought that you would die.
it’s not your fault it is mine,
i shouldn’t of let you drink and drive,
but i did and now your gone,
and i’m alone.
you made me laugh,
you made me cry,
you made me sit and wonder why.
