Story Behind The Song

I had a little guitar at the place I worked and I was bored of hearing people moan about their lives but not do anything about it. So,I sat there and wrote Candle In The Daylight

Song Description

A lot of people moan about not being able to reach their goals, or dreams so they just stop trying for fear of failing. They become apathetic. In the music industry there are a lot of knock backs you have to deal with but I keep on going because this is my dream and this is what I love doing. So even if I don't achieve huge success, my life burns brighter than these other people, so they are as pointless as a Candle in the Daylight.

Lyrics

I may be no-one, I may have nothing
I may be deluded in the chase that I have started
I may have no-one, to sand by my side
I may have to fight alone but I don't mind

So when you talk about these worries that you got, it has no effect on me to make me want to stop

I may be worthless, but then again no
Because I could be someone soon you just never know

So when you talk about these worries that you got, it has no effect on me to make me want to stop

Because you're just a candle in the daylight
You keep your life small, you never reach a great height
But I want more, I got the world in my sights
But you'll, you'll never be what you're supposed to be, because you are just a candle in the daylight

I may get no where, I may stay in a rut
At least I'm giving more, than you've ever got
It may be a decision, that turns out to be wrong
If I don't have a try it aint worth being born

So when you talk about these worries that you got, it has no effect on me to make me want to stop

Because you're just a candle in the daylight
You keep your life small, you never reach a great height
But I want more, I got the world in my sights
But you'll, you'll never be what you're supposed to be, because you are just a candle in the daylight
