Brief Candles Lyrics - Odessey And Oracle - The Zombies

There she sits her hands are held 

Tight around her glass 

She only needs to be alone 

She knows this mood will pass 

To realize that she was strong 

And he too weak to stay 

And to realize that she is better off this way 

Brief candles in her mind 

Bright and tiny gems of memory 

Brief candles burn so fine 

Leaves a light inside where she can see 

What makes it all worthwhile 

Her sadness makes her smile...

His alone girl fades away 

Left out on a limb 

Finds he needs her more because 

She's no more need for him 

He understood so very well 

The things she had to say 

Soon he'll understand that he is better off this way 

Brief candles in his mind 

Bright and tiny gems of memory 

Brief candles burn so fine 

Leaves a light inside where he can see 

What makes it all worthwhile 

His sadness makes him smile... 

Photos 

In the corner see his face 

The man just sips his drink 

Not one feeling does he show 

Far too numb to think 

He does not say a single word 

No word of love to say 

Maybe he will soon believe he's better off this way... 

Brief candles in his mind 

Bright and tiny gems of memory 

Brief candles burn so fine 

Leaves a light inside where he can see 

What makes it all worthwhile 

His sadness makes him smile...
