Once there was a candle in my hand with no light Just a candle You gave it fire And made it burn It created light A sign of hope A guide through the night Now this once burning candle Begins to fade slowly In this dark and frightening tunnel It was not you who blew out the candle It is certainly not my birthday wish That I tried to blow out It was a wind of change - Time itself is the person Who tried to put it out Now I'm here, trying my best To keep alive the guide through the night My Beatrice - source of light Guide through the night When all hope and love is gone Will you light the candle for me again? I lost you in this dark place, my love In this tunnel of despair Don't let the candle go out Thou shalt be the one to fade

My Candle in the night
Once there was a candle in my hand with no light Just a candle You gave it fire And made it burn It created light A sign of hope A guide through the night Now this once burning candle Begins to fade slowly In this dark and frightening tunnel It was not you who blew out the candle It is certainly not my birthday wish That I tried to blow out It was a wind of change - Time itself is the person Who tried to put it out Now I'm here, trying my best To keep alive the guide through the night My Beatrice - source of light Guide through the night When all hope and love is gone Will you light the candle for me again? I lost you in this dark place, my love In this tunnel of despair Don't let the candle go out Thou shalt be the one to fade
May hope and luck be a shield for the fire
