about

lyrics

A lonely candle in the night
Lighting up the dark
Shining through the windowpane
But sleepers do not see

Another candle in the night
Shining from afar
In the distance they become
Small beacons of hope

Together they would bring
Brightness, warmth and joy
For you are not alone
We’re shining to be seen

For all to see
We are the non-forgotten
Forever as one
Nothing comes in black and white
Eternal as one
They thought it would last forever
For all to see
Nothing comes in black and white

A lonely candle in daylight
No one seems to care
People walk and pass it by
In the sun it disappears

In the brightness of daylight
Candles are not seen
No need for their warming light
Until the lonely nights

Lights in all colours bright
To burn away the cold
The grey and barren world
Surrenders to our warmth

Chorus
