Our Candle
The first day of December 1997
Brings back a memory never forgotten
I made the table ready
One candle in the middle
Two glasses of wine
And I waited
For midnight is the time
As I did the first time 5 years ago
Staring at the candle I remembered
The first time we met
The first time we kissed
The first time we shared bed
When we waited
For midnight is the time
As we did the first time 5 years ago
As I sat back and recalled
I looked at the clock hanging on the wall
Midnight had just passed
Awaiting, I knew..
This is what He did last year too
He's not coming this year!
Shouted a falling tear
My Candle shed it's last tear
As it went off, I closed my eyes
Here goes my fourth candle..
For him I'll wait, I can handle
This is what I did last night
And this is what I will do next year too
I'll be waiting for you
With two glasses of wine and a new candle
As I promised you
The first time we met 5 years ago.
