Velas in the Moonlight

Candles guide my footsteps through the darkened room

Soft cold trembling where the quiet shadows bloom

Every little flame is a memory I keep

Holding what was broken while the night goes deep

And then let the candles carry me home

Through the longing, through the leaving

Through the unknown

In the hush of the sorrow

I begin to see

Grief can turn to gratitude

And set me free

I remember your laughter in the velvet air

Like a bell that lingers when I'm standing there

Even pain has mercy when it's held with grace

Every tear a river burning its own place

And I let the candles carry me home

For the longing, for the leaving

Through the unknown

In the hush of the sorrow

I begin to see

Grief can turn to gratitude

Set me free

So I bow to the love that time cannot erase

'Cause the sacred little moments, none can take their place

What was lost still shines in the amber night

Turning all my mourning into softer light

And I let the candles carry me home

For the longing, for the leaving, through the unknown

In the hash of the soil, I begin to see

Grief can turn to gratitude and set me free

Candles guide my heart where the warmth

When's wrong in the dark, in the stillness?

I am not alone
