[verse] Put another candle in the window a silent prayer up for you I hope you find your peace and happiness follows you I know I'm doing the right thing but then why am I so sad I feel so lost and broken after losing everything I had friends I thought would be here that would stay by my side the people that promised forever loyalty changed like tides [chorus] I put a candle in the window hope the shadows lose their hold I'll pray for those that wronged me turn the ache into gold for all the faces that I've lost may time begin to mend and that I no longer have to choose another fairweather friend [verse] but I'm still standing here all alone, a distant star calling out to my people may I find where you are All the secrets and the lies the weight too heavy to bear hidden complications that were never really fair so I'm doing the right thing even though it's hard to do keeping my integrity to my heart I must stay true [chorus] I put a candle in the window hope the shadows lose their hold I'll pray for those that wronged me turn the ache into gold for all the faces that I've lost may time begin to mend and that I no longer have to choose another fairweather friend [outro] for all the faces that I've lost may time begin to mend may grace help me accept the things that had to end
