Faithful reasons still unknown
Like Bleak House fog seems everywhere
The truth has faded into stone
And hope lies freezing in the midnight air
Though dark our days may seem
This is a diff'rent dream
Their freedom light don't shine at all
Chorus:
So I will light a candle for you
And keep it burning in the night
And pray that you're all right
I will light a candle for you
A little candle burning bright
When school yard heroes disappeared
The little girl, she stands alone
Oh I believe you if you say
A prayer can help to get her home
chorus
I will light a candle for you
Keep it burning in the night
And pray that you are all right
I will light a candle for you
Little candle burning bright
