(I'm Not) a Candle in the Wind

(Mary Sharon Rice / Bill Rice)



'Neath your feet you feel the world is shaking

And your dreams slowly sifting thro' your hand

But there's a place you'll never be forsaken

I'm a warm fire burning, not a candle in the wind.



Life can be a silver river winding

With the dark side awaiting 'round the bend

But for you, a light is always shining

'Cause I'm a warm fire burning, not a candle in the wind.



Chorus:

And I'll be waiting here with arms that ache to hold you

Till forever turns around and starts again

Should you need someone who'll never harm you

I'm a warm fire burning, not a candle in the wind.



Chorus:

And I'll be waiting here with arms that ache to hold you

Till forever turns around and starts again

Should you need someone who'll never harm you

I'm a warm fire burning, not a candle in the wind...
