It's not easy to run

From this rush of entanglement

You saw it coming

You saw love you fell for it

I found the pleasure

In living the thick of it

But now it's hard

So hard to admit

 

And the candle burns slowly

For a love that you had for the lonely

And I wonder now

Have we gone away

 

How far have we gone away

From the magic of yesterday

We're just learning to crawl

Away from the wall we have made

How far have we gone away

How far have we gone away

From the love that we made

It's not easy to stay

Beyond the grave

 

It's not often that you

Have the chance to remember it

You saw it falling

You're gifted in lifting it

It came so fast and I'm

Trying to live with it

But now it's life and love

I've come to regret

 

And the candle burns slowly

For a love that you had for the lonely

And I wonder now

Have we gone away

 

repeat chorus
