Just A Candle
[Lyrics of "Just A Candle" ft. Mark Lanegan]
I went walking through the graveyard, with a candle, just a candle, to light my way
Looking for the handle, to the doorway, to take me home, take me away
We are made of light and shadow, come tomorrow will all the sorrow, be a memory made
I’d be a lion in the heath, feeding on my kill, blood upon my teeth
They say that there a heaven, somewhere up there in, up there in the sky
At a quarter to eleven, I gotta catch the train, with my blue eyes blind
They say that there’s a heaven, somewhere up there in, up there in the sky
At a quarter to eleven, I’m waitin for the train, with this particular sadness...
I found myself deep in the forest, after midnight, with a candle, as my dying light
An angelic chorus, leading me forward, calling me onward, to wondrous side
We are made of light and shadow, come tomorrow will all the sorrow, be a memory made
I’d be a lion in the heath, feeding on my kill, blood upon my teeth
They say that there’s a heaven, somewhere up there in, up there in the sky
At a quarter to eleven, I’m waiting for the train, with my blue eyes blind
They say that there’s a heaven, somewhere up there in, up there in the sky
At a quarter to eleven, I’m riding on the train, with the burning feeling of tears come to my eyes
Through the graveyard / With a candle / Just a candle / To light my way
Looking for the handle / To the doorway / To take me home / take me away
Just a candle
