[00:07.85]There she sits her hands are held
[00:11.29]Tight around her glass
[00:13.90]
[00:14.66]She only needs to be alone
[00:18.22]She knows this mood will pass
[00:20.86]
[00:21.67]To realize that she was strong
[00:25.11]And he too weak to stay
[00:28.86]And to realize that she is better off this way
[00:35.80]Brief candles in her mind
[00:38.98]Bright and tiny gems of memory
[00:43.24]Brief candles burn so fine
[00:46.24]Leaves a light inside where she can see
[00:50.72]What makes it all worthwhile
[00:54.10]Her sadness makes her smile
[00:57.55]
[01:01.61]His alone girl fades away
[01:04.73]Left out on a limb
[01:08.11]Finds he needs her more because
[01:11.42]She's no more need for him
[01:14.85]He understood so very well
[01:17.35]
[01:18.13]The things she had to say
[01:21.63]Soon he'll understand that he is better off this way
[01:28.81]Brief candles in his mind
[01:31.93]Bright and tiny gems of memory
[01:36.11]Brief candles burn so fine
[01:39.42]Leaves a light inside where he can see
[01:43.67]What makes it all worthwhile
[01:47.41]His sadness makes him smile
[01:49.88]
[02:09.10]In the corner see his face
[02:12.04]The man just sips his drink
[02:15.59]Not one feeling does he show
[02:19.31]Far too numb to think
[02:22.75]He does not say a single word
[02:25.93]No word of love to say
[02:28.81]
[02:29.69]Maybe he will soon believe he's better off this way
[02:35.68]
[02:36.55]Brief candles in his mind
[02:39.67]Bright and tiny gems of memory
[02:43.92]Brief candles burn so fine
[02:47.04]Leaves a light inside where he can see
[02:51.50]What makes it all worthwhile
[02:53.76]
[02:55.01]His sadness makes him smile
