Lyrics
Down the dark stairs
and through the hall
The candle lit
won't help at all
She reaches for the lights,
but, they aren't there
She lives in darkness
it isn't fair
Lights off again
Can't pay the bill
What can she do?
She stands still
Solitary motion,
justice of space
Only she accepts this
act of grace
Dancing by Candlelight
This she will do for
the rest of the night
Dancing by Candlelight
Shadows play on the wall
and it makes such a sight
Her neighbors wonder
what it's like to be
Dancing by Candlelight
Her pride sometimes
gets in the way
Slightly compelled
do what they say
Holding back from inside
the feelings she feels
and the night away she steals
(Chorus)
When all alone
with no one there
Dancing alone
without a care
Only she knows what it's like
to be
Dancing by Candlelight
