Both Ends of the Candle (outtake) Songtext
von Willie Nelson

I′ve been tryin' so hard to forget you
But this chore of forgettin′ I find
Has me burnin' both ends of the candle
And fightin' a battle with time


What I′d give just to sleep for a moment
But it′s a luxury that I can't afford
For I know that I just dream about you
And my tears would start fallin′ once more

So I'm burnin′ both ends of the candle
I just hope that it lasts through the night
For each moment the candle is burnin'
Brings closer the ending of life

So I′m burnin' both ends of the candle
I just hope that it lasts through the night
For each moment the candle is burnin'
It brings closer the ending of life
