Lyrics of Candle

By : Hammill Peter

Look at the candle, as it's life is bought,
as the wick just rolls of and dies;
look at the wax-drops as they cease from their goal
and the game they were playing loses its joy
and the youth which they played in runs away....
How long will you be gone?

Flames sucks at air now and its breath comes short
as it wavers to half its size;
vacuum closes in and it attacks the soul.
Now the force omnipotent itself is destroyed
and for lack of itself it wanes away....
How long will you be gone?

So does my mind fly as I fight my thought -
and I lose, for I cannot find:
sent my eyes long miles, they do not know home!
For the life I was part of breathes its last
and not only life, but hope has gone away....
How long will you be gone?
How long will you be gone

 Lyrics of Candle<hr> By : Hammill Peter

Look at the candle, as it's life is bought, 
as the wick just rolls of and dies; 
look at the wax-drops as they cease from their goal 
	and the game they were playing loses its joy 
	and the youth which they played in runs away.... 
How long will you be gone? 
 
Flames sucks at air now and its breath comes short 
as it wavers to half its size; 
vacuum closes in and it attacks the soul. 
	Now the force omnipotent itself is destroyed 
	and for lack of itself it wanes away.... 
How long will you be gone? 
 
So does my mind fly as I fight my thought - 
and I lose, for I cannot find: 
sent my eyes long miles, they do not know home! 
	For the life I was part of breathes its last 
	and not only life, but hope has gone away.... 
How long will you be gone? 
How long will you be gone </marque>
