Candles in the sun, blowing in the wind
Working tirelessly, battling, all to strive in this life full of sin
But just when will we realize that this painful game wasn't designed for us to win?
The intention was not for us to last forever but to create moments that do
Legacies that withheld the barriers of time
Pangs of love so sincere, it's something many die trying to find
Hoping that through it all we've been nothing but kind
Over rimed with joy just looking back at it
Realizing that, yes indeed it was all mine

You see we've all had the hope that we'd find true love one day
But exactly just what are we to do
When we've already encountered our true love
Messed it up and now we're beyond *******?
Love em' then leave em'
Who wants to play that game?
I would've rather love and lost
Than to be full with regret so immense all I can do is bury my head in shame

Honestly, at the end of it all
When all this is over what are you going to do,
To ensure that you're not the loneliest guy, wondering why
You never loved them back the way that they loved you?
Cause I've loved and I've lost
Now there's nothing left for me to do
As I stare at this brightly blazing candle
I think of all the things I could've done with you
All in attempts to prove
that my love to you was nothing but true!
