Lyrics
LIGHT A CANDLE EVERY CHRISTMAS COPYRIGHT 2005 R.HAUVER-WORDS&MUSIC
Remember not too long ago
Christmas eve and falling snow
It is every child's longest night
And the Santas who stay up building toys until light
But the real gift they gave you, Didn;t come from a store
And it's still there inside you, To open once more...
CHORUS:
Light a candle every Christmas, For the ones who can't be here
Always keep their spirit with us and, It will guide us through the year
Light a candle every Christmas
It's not about the money spent
It's about a father's tenderness
Or a single mother's sacrifice
Just to see the light in her daughter's eyes
And the world moves more slowly, On this one special night
As we all feel the magic, We once felt inside
CHORUS
Tonight I watch the falling snow
And dream of Christmas long ago
As I see my neighbor's twinkling lights
I know that I'll be up all night
Cause tonight it's my turn, To deliver these dreams
And pass on the spirit, That was given to me...
CHORUS
