Candle


there's a candle to my far right
at dark it gives off great light
during the day its only a spot in the haze
everyone is trying to make it through the maze
but when they stop and look
the candle is an automatic hook

it's light shines far and wide
though it won't take you for a thrill ride
the quiet burning is always there
you can always find it, even if you are not here

it reminds most all of wonderful peace
and promises a wormth greater than fleace

oh, that faithfull candle off to my right
will always give off a great light
and if i ever go to another place
i hope to find that candle in other's faces
making them have that familiar glow
that burns bright and slow

yes, the candle off to my right
does give off a bright light
