[Verse 1]
You're amazing but you're taking too much time
I've only got six candles left
And I'm trying to keep this off my mind
It's getting darker but it's the way they make feel
They try to fill my head with questions
They all doubt you but I know you're real

[Pre-Chorus]
If it takes time then I'll be patient
Know that I will still believe
I'll take your hand and hold it tightly
'Cause I know you'll carry me

[Chorus]
Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin
Give me the strength to carry on
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on

[Verse 2]
And I'm so thankful for every breath I take
There's not a moment that goes by
I waste wiping tears out of my cryin' face
Don't look so sad, you've missed the point
I'm still so glad I knew you
Against the odds I'll take my chances
And burn this candle through you
[Pre-Chorus]
If it takes time then I'll be patient
Know that I will still believe
I'll take your hand and hold it tightly
'Cause I know you'll carry me

[Chorus]
Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin
Give me the strength to carry on
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on

[Bridge]
If I could ever see the way you understand me
When no one else can see it
I know you surround me
I'll be the one who listens only when you tell me
Not walking but running, not talking, yelling
And they might never understand why I do what I do
But I can only speak my mind
And what I feel is true
I'll take a vow to be the only one who stands if it takes
All that I am, I will be standing, there, there

[Chorus]
Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin
Give me the strength to carry on
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on
Take me high, Take me in, Take these last six candles
And when I'm tired, and wearing thin
Give me the strength to carry on
Here I am, see my hands, take these last six candles
We're moving on, we'll keep, keep, moving on
