"Candles On The River" lyrics

"Candles On The River"

Candles on the river, islands in the rain
All the world is drowning, in a rose, a ring of flame
I see it rise, a wall of light
There are too many candles in the night

Too many people, too many framed
Too many turn to black, they drown in the rain
Too many forshamed, so many lies
I've got a feeling, I do, too many cry

Candles on the river, moving down a line
Gathering together, a chandelier, all tied
See it grow, a tower of flame
There are too many candles in the rain

Too many forshamed, so many lies
I've got a feeling, I do, too many cry

Candles on the river, islands in the rain
All the world is drowning, in a rose, a ring of flame
I see it rise, a wall of light
There are too many candles in the night

Too many people, too many framed
Too many turn to black, they drown in the rain
Too many forshamed, so many lies
I've got a feeling, I do, too many cry
