Avalon - Light A Candle Lyrics

Light a candle
for the old man who sits staring
out a frosty window pane.
Light a candle
for the women who is lonely
and every christmas it's the same.
For the children who need
more than presents can bring.

Chorus:
Light a candle
Light the dark
Light the world
Light a heart or two
Light a candle for me
I'll light a candle for you

Light a candle
for the homeless and the hungry;
a little shelter from the cold.
Light a candle
for the broken and forgotten;
may the season warm their souls.
Can we open our hearts
to shine through the dark.

Repeat Chorus

And in this special time of year
may peace on earth surround us here,
and teach us there's a better way to live.
Oh, and with every flame that burns,
we must somehow learn
that love's the greatest gift
that we could ever give.

Repeat Chorus
