My Candle Burns Lyrics - Marc Almond

You cried last night in your sleep 

Close my arms 'round you when you weep 

Archangel on wings of the night 

Keeps you safe 'til the kiss of the light 

The hour is dark before the dawn 

And so the lull before the storm 

A world full of people alone 

But I found a love of my own 

My candle burns at both ends 

It will not last the night 

But ah my foes and oh my friends 

It gives a lovely light

Get To Know Charming Folk Trio, The Accidentals 

Soft voices whispering to me 

From the sad heaving breast of the sea 

As I stand in a pale light again 

A moth clinging desperately to his flame 

The hour is dark before the dawn 

And so the lull before the storm 

A world full of people alone 

I cling to a flame of my own

It will not last the night 

But ah my foes and oh my friends 

It gives a lovely light
