But I'm on my way back home again
Back to the ways I knew before
Back to the ones I left behind
It's over now
And it's time to see things in a different light
Back to the faces of yesterday
Out of this fantasy
I've traveled miles high and low
And I've seen the world through these eyes
For every living day I know
It takes more to get me by
As the candle burns
I've learned one thing
To live you life but say a prayer
For all that you've got
As the candle burns
Trust and honesty
Just follow your heart and swear
By the ones that you love
As the candle burns
It's a life for the taking
It's a life that surrounds you
Full of liars and thieves
But it's the truth that pulls you through Back to reality
Through all the years and painful tears
It's been a mountain that I must climb
And for every living day it's clear
I've turned a page in time
As the candle burns
I've learned one thing
To live your life and say a prayer
For all that you've got
As the candle burns
Trust and honesty
Just follow your heart and swear
By the ones that you love
As the candle burns
I've traveled miles high and low
And I've seen the world through these eyes
For every living thing I know
It takes more to get me by
As the candle burns
I've learned one thing
To live your life and say a prayer
For all that you've got
As the candle burns
Trust and honesty
So follow your heart and swear
By the ones that you love
As the candle burns.
