It's not just how we were together
It was the way it started
I didn't have to convince you
It was something you already knew

You left the door open
With white candles burning inside
It was as if you were expecting someone
The romance was that I was the one

I didn't have so far to climb
It was what you wanted all along
You were so unafraid
The look in my eyes was easy to tame

Now the candle has burned out
A closed door, I'm everybody's stranger
Who would be so fearless again
Now I wait for something I cannot explain

You were so unafraid
Unafraid to say what you mean
If only I knew how to to make someone
Unafraid to light a candle again
