Candles Lyrics

Aswad

Candles, burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Candles, burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them

Jah in all my days
I'm so ashamed, to see what's really happening
They're running all about
They're so out of order; and have no behaviour

Candles, burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Candles burning at both ends
How can they, last the night?

Jah give I the knowledge now
To expect that which I cannot change
Give I the wisdom to know the difference
And give I the courage, to change what I can

Candles, burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Candles burning at both ends

How can they ever expect to learn?
If they don't listen
How can they ever expect to learn?
If they don't look and see
Experiences of life
Have taught them nothing
They know not that it is they
And them alone can set us free

Candles, burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Candles burning at both ends
How can they, last the night?
