Candle To Last
Burning candles blow out fast
Seems like none shall ever last
Wick too short or wax too weak
Dripping blood as my heart weeps
No warmth provided anymore
Wond'ring what "love" is really for
To cause you joy or deathly pain
Now I question what's to gain
This "true love" my heart desires
Or the burn of betrayal's fires
The tears that follow their good-bye's
Or their laughter 'cause I cry
Is this candle I search for
Really worth me slandered whore
Just 'cause of what I've been told
Of this candle I can hold
A flame to last and never waver
A smell to keep and need not savor
The warmth that's given is mine to keep
No more laughter to make me weep
No more fires to harm my heart
Just the love right from the start
Burning candles blow out too fast
Maybe the next is the one to last
