Candles (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Take away,
These hands of darkness.
Reaching for my soul.
Now, the cold wind,
blows out my candles.
Feeling,
only fear,
without any hopr.

A thousand dark moons.
A thousand winters long.
A million fallen stars,
the candle burns in the womb.

We trie not to forget,
they live through us.
Slowly they die away at every candle’s end

A thousand dark moons.
A thousand winters long.
A million fallen stars,
the candle burns in the womb.

We trie not to forget,
they live through us.
Slowly they die away at every candle’s end

Candles (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Breathe a little bit

Breathe a little bit for me now

Dance a little bit

Dance a little bit for me now

And when the storm come’s late

And turns out the lights

There is no need to worry

Everything is alright

You’ve got your dog and your blanket

And your candles for light

Yeah, everythings gonna be alright

Give a little bit

Give a little piece of your heart

Dance around now baby

Dance around and play the part

Make your grandma happy

Roll it around…

And when the storm come’s late

And turns out the lights

There is no need to worry

Everything is alright

You’ve got your dog and your blanket

And your candles for light

Yeah, everythings gonna be alright

Candles (Letra)

Refrain:
You, were my hope
Your hope was mine
Candles are low
For the last time
I don’t want to look; when i do it saddens me
It saddens me so when i recall their first light
I don’t want to turn back to then, for then i’ll see
How quickly they lengthen in line and they multiply

(refrain)

Once i made a big cake for my father so long ago
For his 50th birthday one year, wouldn’t you know
Like cassandra, i read him a chilling prophecy
I read him a poem, it was ‘candles’ and now i grieve

Spoken:
[days of our future stand before us
Like a row of little lighted candles
Golden, warm and lively little candles
The days gone by remain behind us
A mournful line of burnt-out candles
The nearest ones are still smoking
Cold candles, melted, and bent]
(from "candles" by cavafy)

I don’t want to look when i do it saddens me
It saddens me so when i recall their first light
I don’t want to turn back to then, for then i’ll see
How quickly they lengthen in line, and they multiply.

(refrain)

Candles (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Faith for reasons still unknown
Like ‘bleak house fog’ seems everywhere
The truth has frozen into stone
And hope lies freezing in the midnight air
Though dark our days may seem
This is a different dream
Their freedom light don’t shine at all

So i will light a candle for you
Keep it burning in the night
And pray that you are all right
I will light a candle for you
Little candle burning bright

When school yard heroes disappeared
The little girl, she stands alone
Oh i believe you if you say
A prayer can help to get her home

So i will light a candle for you
Keep it burning in the night
And pray that you are all right
I will light a candle for you
Little candle burning bright

Candles (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

You’re going down and it feels good
But you ain’t wearing what you should
All the people that you’ve had
The time is over

So count your blessings count the times
You forgot their names committed the crimes, yeah
All the people that you’ve had
The time is over

Oh, it’s time to make amends
You’ve been
Burning the candle at both ends

Oh-oh-oh, it ‘s time to make amends
You’ve been
Burning the candle at both ends

Oh, it’s time to make amends
You’ve been
Burning the candle at both ends
