Candlemas Songtext
von Phil Shöenfelt & Southern Cross

When I look into your eyes
All my walls come tumbling down
There′s nothing that I could say
That would take this pain away
And the darkness crashes in
And all the candles burn out slowly
Love has brought us here again
And the streets they are so lonely

And you say to me
"Why can't you see?
That I need you
Much more, than you need me ..."
I thought our love was strong
But now the feeling′s gone
And I grieve, my dear
For everything that we did wrong


Out in the street the dawn is breaking
And the night is fading fast
So many promises lay broken
All buried in the past
And I'm standing in the corner
Of some faded mystery
Take me walking through the chambers
Of your dark and haunted sea

And you say to me
"Why can't you see?
That I love you
Much more, than you love me ..."
I thought our love was strong
But now the feeling′s gone
And I grieve, my dear
For everything that we did wrong

And the rain falls down
Like the blood of Christ
Your skin is pale
As cold as ice
This well of tears
Is all run dry
Love has gone
So let the spirit fly
And it′s gone forever
And it's gone forever
