Softly Burning
Copyright 2003 Brian Hazelbower

I've been thinkin bout you lately
You've been runnin through my mind
Not as often as you used to
I guess time has helped me find

Comfort from a lonesome feeling
Now I'll have to be resigned
To every day's another wakin
Knowing life's left you behind

CHORUS
I keep a candle in the window of my mind
Burning softly so your memory might find It's way back
All I ever hoped that you could see
Is the love that came from me


I've been thinkin bout you lately
I've been wanderin through my mind
Finding memories put away there
Precious treasures left behind

CHORUS
I keep a candle in the window of my mind
Burning softly so your memory might find It's way back
All I ever hoped that you could see
Is the love that came from me

BRIDGE
I close my eyes and I dream your standing there
Taste your sweet lips Smell your pretty hair
And though our lives were not meant to be
I'm SOFTLY BURNING through eternity

CHORUS
I keep a candle in the window of my mind
Burning softly so your memory might find It's way back
All I ever hoped that you could see
Is the love that came from
me
All I ever wanted you to know
Is I loved you so

I been thinkin bout you lately
