Candle In The Window
Lyricist:John Murphy, Frank Neal Wildhorn
Hurry through the night, past the shuttered houses Towards a solitary light Burning in the window near a figure in a chair Always sitting there quiet as a prayer
Does he close his eyes weary with the weight of being Suddenly so wise? Tired of the demons he must sit up there and fight Deep into the night, praying that he's right?
Every evening I can see his shadow on the shade And I don't feel so alone or so afraid
There's a candle in the window every night Reflecting all our hopes and dreams Or so it seems to me as I look up to see That candle in the window every night Burning like the yearning to be free Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Far away and dim kept alive by him
Seven blocks away before I go to bed I fall down On my knees and pray That he will keep his candle burning just a moment more Till he finds a way, this is what I pray
And I wonder does he see me passing by each night As I look up to find his patch of light
There's a candle in the window every night Reflecting all our hopes and dreams Or so it seems to me as I look up to see That candle in the window shining bright Burning like the yearning to be free Far away and dim kept alive by him
Hurry through the night towards a solitary light
