I lit a candle for your soul
Was that right?
I don't know

I watched it burning ever bright
in my eyes lost and cold
through this wind swept night

Once when we were free and bold
I shared dark things I had seen
Before the world had taken hold

In the woods we were free
your open words were you
and my reserved heart was me

Then the pain shot right through
and our conversation came to an end
Powerless; there was nothing I could do

On the day I lost my friend
