She's a candlelight girl you can set her aflame
With a word from your tongue offering praise
And she's close to me her love I put on
Like a chain on my neck
She's close to Mary Jesus is there
But they don't talk about Him till the end of the prayer
And she comes to me to question my faith
But I just tell her
And I love to love her and get in her mind
And though she doesn't know it she challenges mine
And men often take her and promise her love
But where are the now?
C-A-N-D-L-E-L-I-G-H-T (she sits by)
She's as frail as a promise and harder than pride
Though strong is her answer her fear she can't hide
She's as faithful as anger and sweeter than beer
But she won't let me near
C-A-N-D-L-E-L-I-G-H-T (she sits by)
