Her little man is 4 years old |
|
Looks like his father so he's been told |
|
But he wouldn't know it, he ain't never seen him around |
|
Life has been cold, it treats her unkind |
|
But she'll keep on searching until she can find |
|
Something she can cling to when the rain comes down |
|
A candle just won't light in the pouring rain |
|
The pressures of this life are driving her insane yeah |
|
Now given the chance she knows she can shine |
|
But she's so tied down that she ain't got the time |
|
A candle just won't light in the pouring rain |
|
She was so young, had to quit school |
|
Grew up too fast now she's nobody's fool |
|
No time for dreamin' life just kinda leads her around 9 to 5 world leaves nowhere to grow |
|
She'd spread her wings but there's nowhere to go |
|
Her tiny flame is no match for the rain coming down |
|
A candle just won't light in the pouring rain |
|
The pressures of this life are driving her insane (yeah) |
|
Now given the chance she knows she can shine |
|
But she's so tied down that she ain't got the time |
|
A candle just won't light in the pouring rain |
