CANDLE'S GETTING SHORTER
Ken Hensley


And the candle's getting shorter
And the flame has nearly gone
You didn't love me like you
Ought to have done
Why do I, why do I keep on crying
Why do I, why do I keep on crying

How long will the sadness last
Will it be too long before it's past
How I've been so
Hopelessly out class
Since our love died
I've cried and cried and I cried
Since our love died
I've cried and cried and I cried

It doesn't really matter
If I wake one day and find
You didn't want to stay
My heart will just go on pretending
That I didn't love or
Want you anyway, no
