After the phone calls
And tears have been shed,
Once all the words have been
Drained from our heads,
Try as i might
To believe in this choice,
To believe in the future bright and free,
Running it’s course,
No one holds a candle to you
No one holds a candle
No one holds a candle to you
No one holds a candle
Baby, i don’t wanna leave you
Baby, i don’t wanna stay
Morning he awakes
Tearstained face with
Dreams of her
As his wife
But he
Can’t do right
By her
To save
His own life -
But god knows it would,
It would, it would.
God knows it would,
It would, it would.
No one holds a candle to you
No one holds a candle
No one holds a candle to you
No one holds a candle
Baby, i don’t wanna leave you
Baby, i don’t wanna stay
