Once every christmas I take some time
Time on my own where I can gather my thoughts and try
To think of people I once knew
This year I'll light a candle just for you.
I never thought life could hurt so bad
The moment you said goodbye oh how I wish I could've had
More time to share my world with you
Hope you are missing me, too
This year I'll light a candle just for you
The light - brings you back to me tonight
Memories of you and I
Live within my mind
Not so hard to find
All the love you left behind
There are some things I would like you to know
Things I have done and things I've learned that have made me grow
And dreams I hope someday'll come true
This year I'll light candle just for you
I'm lighting a light in my heart
Thinking of you and the things that we used to do
'Cause the light - brings you back to me tonight...
Once every christmas I say goodbye
I tug you in, and let the memories fly and I'll
See you again and when I do
Then I will light a candle just for you
This year my light was shining just for you
