Janis Ian - A Candle for the Flame lyrics
[Janis Ian - A Candle for the Flame lyrics]
And think how few of them remain
I would not be ashamed to say
I'm lucky I became a candle for the flame
Looking back at the money I made
There are those who say I threw it all away
Gone to family and friends
But I would do it again
‘Cause it helped me to remain
A candle for the flame
It shone so bright on my darkest night
I never felt myself alone
And I always believеd
That it shined just for me
A light I'd always known
Would guide my way back homе
I have tasted the wine of regret
And I have wasted the secrets I kept
But I would not be afraid to say
That I'm lucky I remained
A candle to the flame
No, I would not be ashamed to say
I'm lucky I became a candle for the flame
