Lately I don't know if I can make it
Love will take your heart and it will break it down
Maybe when we die we will remember
The fire yesterday that's just an ember now

So light the candle
And ease your worried mind
Carry on and seek the love
You will find

You caged a free bird
So free the caged words
That you speak
And you will have a song to sing

Empty are the words about tomorrow
Feel the fear upon your weak and furrowed brow
The children listen closely on your shoulder
Try to hear the truth, but it's a colder sound

So light the candle
And ease their troubled minds
Walking on in search of love
They will find

You hear the heart's drum (hard strum)
We all become one with everything
And you now have a song to sing
