Sitting alone in this dark room
A single candle casting shadows
Dancing about the walls
Feeling the emptiness surround me
Engulf me, swallow me
I'm left all alone
As I was before you
But now even your warmth
Can no longer comfort me
For you are too often gone
Leaving me alone in the dark
Letting the shadows take me
I see us dancing
Together in the shadows
As we used to do
But you've drifted away,
And closer to the dark
I get every day without you
The candle is growing short
As our love seems, too.
Reach out to me
From the dark
And light a new candle
To keep the shadows dancing
And our love strong
