Johanna Kurkela
Candle In The Dark
[Verse 1]
I've sought for solace
In many places
Storybooks
Religions, friendly faces
Yet my hands stayed empty
My heart a black land
Every gamble for a reason
Lost staring at a dead man's hand
[Chorus]
With dying light
I turn to face another night
Pray the morn to reverse the tide
Every fleeting glee as my abode
I rest my head against the deep unknown
All I've come to learn of love
My only candle in the dark
[Verse 2]
Some friends we keep
Some friends we lose
Some lies wе buy
Some truths we choose
Yеt by and by
Still waters run deep
We all must drink the bitter
As well as the sweet
[Chorus]
With dying light
I turn to face another night
Pray the morn to reverse the tide
Every fleeting glee as my abode
I rest my head against the deep unknown
All I've come to learn of love
My only candle in the dark
[Bridge]
I burn to keep
In memory
Every flicker vivid still
Turn death into diamonds
Longing to a song
[Chorus]
And with your guiding smile
I turn to face another night
Pray the morn for a gentle ride
Every fleeting glee as my abode
I rest my head against the deep unknown
All I've come to learn of love
My only candle in the dark
