Candlelight |
| Don’t let the sun go down on me |
| I do not want to be alone tonight |
| We’ll be right, you’ll see |
| Night is a shadow on the soul |
| And if you want to set me wholly free |
| Stay by me tonight |
| I’ve been afraid of love |
| Knowing I need you to stay |
| I’ve been ashamed to love |
| Knowing you’re leaving me |
| Day after day |
| I’m begging you, pleading |
| I like you best |
| When night runs a shadow on the soul |
| No more empty hands to hold |
| Don’t let the evening sun go down |
| I haven’t found a way |
| To trade the night |
| Sheer delight |
| Burning bright |
| Candlelight |
| Lay me down — astound me |
| Not a sound- surround me |
| Skies unbound, I’m unwound |
| Lay me down |
| I’ve been afraid to love |
| This is no time to hesitate |
| I’ve been ashamed to love |
| But lay me down, I just can’t wait |
| I like you best |
| When night is a pleasure you can give |
| Lay me down — now I know how to |
| Lay me down — now I know how to |
| Lay me down |
| Now I know how to live |
