Lyrics
Sadness In The Strings
The candle burns slowly
All through the night.
Shadows run fearfully
Hiding dark secrets from the light.
And while the music softly plays
All Through the night
The silence runs fearfully
like shadows from the light.
And there's a hint of sadness in the strings
They play my heart so well.
Tears falling like a gentle rain
Got me caught up in a spell.
2nd verse:
The light dances on the wall
between the candle and the wind.
As I count all my blessings
and wrestle with my sins.
And there's feelings apart from all the rest.
behind the shadows & never seen
Beyond all the words and metaphor
Beyond any words my lips can speak.
As my candle melts away
and the silent shadows swell
The final sad note is played
And the light inside bids................ farewell
