There's a candle burning in the window / The sun's going down but how would you know / This fading light is now a shadow / But you won't see it cause nobody is home / This house will burn down / And this flame will burn out / If you're not here Each room in this house will empty / One by one it won't be long / Until I can only hear my own voice echo / Down these halls and through these walls / This house will burn down / And this flame will burn out / And this love that I feel will disappear / If you're not here / I have never felt so lonely as when I was with you / You struck a match just to watch it burn down / and left me holding this flame for you
