A candle glows just like it knows I need a little bit of light right now And as it burns, I see the flame It looks alive, I wish I felt the same
A whiskey drink to wash it down Another swig of that sweet amber brown In the bottom I see your smile I just want to drink a little, a little while
CHORUS: Hold on everything’s fine Can’t you hear the words I’m saying this time I’d give you everything that I’ve made But now all my sins can never be paid
Dig me up when I am dead And you will see what’s in my head I hope then that it’s all clear It’s just not there for me to say my dear
I’m getting tired, just want to rest Lay my head on your tender breast But I’m alone, and scared to death I just need some time to catch my breath
(CHORUS)
But there’s hope in my heart That we can’t stay apart For long I need for this to be true
