She Said

She said, light a candle for me
Place it on the front windowsill
I need to see a glimmer in the dark
To find my way home
A reassuring amber glow
A reminder of the hope I should feel.

She said, hold my hand will you, dear
I should be tired and sad but I'm not
Do you think we get a second chance
To restart the music and the dance
Or are those few grains of sand in that hourglass
Really all that we have got.
