The Candle Lyrics - The Best Of King Diamond - King Diamond

Seven years have gone 

It can no longer be left undone 

The candle must burn again 

And pain must follow the unholy flame 

So burn, burn, burn 

And free the spirit from its chain 

Here I am blinded again by that flame 

In every candle that I burn, burn 

I see that same face return, it returns 

Eyes in pain, my little queen, are you a dream? 

In every candle that I burn, burn 

I see that same face return, it returns 

Time has come for you to tell the truth 

What shall I do? The tears are running from her eyes 

If she could only tell me why? You don't tell me why 

The Jonah, the Jonah 

With twisted key, she speaks a word to me 

And then I see her face falling apart 

The word Jonah is her mark, she's branded
