There she sits her hands are held

Tight around her glass

She only needs to be alone

She knows this mood will pass

To realize that she was strong

And he too weak to stay

And to realize that she is better off this way

Brief candles in her mind

Bright and tiny gems of memory

Brief candles burn so fine

Leaves a light inside where she can see

What makes it all worthwhile

Her sadness makes her smile...

His alone girl fades away

Left out on a limb

Finds he needs her more because

She's no more need for him

He understood so very well

The things she had to say

Soon he'll understand that he is better off this way

Brief candles in his mind

Bright and tiny gems of memory

Brief candles burn so fine

Leaves a light inside where he can see

What makes it all worthwhile

His sadness makes him smile...

In the corner see his face

The man just sips his drink

Not one feeling does he show

Far too numb to think

He does not say a single word

No word of love to say

Maybe he will soon believe he's better off this way...

Brief candles in his mind

Bright and tiny gems of memory

Brief candles burn so fine

Leaves a light inside where he can see

What makes it all worthwhile

His sadness makes him smile...
