Candle in the rain

Now that you're gone
I'm trying not to cry
and I'm asking my walls
why our love had to die
wise people say time
will heal every wound - someday

Well, I tried to be a good guy
tried harder day by day
but on this bed of roses
the fire - the wire didn't stay

Like a candle out in the rain
on the wings of a prayer we've been hiding our pain
our fading love - we tried to save but in vain
Like a candle in the rain

Maybe we should have tried
a little bit more
and maybe we had a dream
worth fighting for
but it's been taken away
the winds of change blew so fast
and passion didn't last
Well, I tried to be a good guy
tried harder day by day
but on this bed of roses
the fire - the wire didn't stay

Like a candle out in the rain
on the wings of a prayer we've been hiding our pain
our fading love - we tried to save but in vain
Like a candle in the rain

When at night the winds blew cold
we used to lie awake and hold
each other tight but these days are gone forever
forever now

Like a candle out in the rain
on the wings of a prayer we've been hiding our pain
our fading love - we tried to save but in vain
Like a candle in the rain
