close the window
the sun's too bright
a summer's shade, hear from hell
burn the candle
when it's gone, don't cry
wax and wick, flesh and bone
they pass in time
i can hope and i can wish
that tree will stay and give me shade
and i can hope and i can wish
that tree will stay and give me shade
my love said forever to me
but now forever's gone
but the tree still gives me shade
leave the heat
pray the shade will stay
each summer's day, each life's love
they pass in time
hold each thought
they can surely fade
or melt away
on a july day
burn the candle
when it's gone, don't cry
wax and wick, flesh and bone
they pass in time
