Janis Ian - Candlelight Lyrics
don't let the sun go down on meI do not want to be alone tonightWe'll be right, you'll seeNight is a shadow on the souland if you want to set me wholly freestay by me tonightI've been afraid of loveknowing I need you to stayI've been ashamed to loveknowing you're leaving meday after dayI'm begging you, pleadingI like you bestwhen night runs a shadow on the soulNo more empty hands to holdDon't let the evening sun go downI haven't found a wayto trade the nightsheer delightburning brightcandlelightLay me down - astound meNot a sound- surround meSkies unbound, I'm unwound Lay me downI've been afraid to loveThis is no time to hesitateI've been ashamed to lovebut lay me down, I just can't waitI like you bestwhen night is a pleasure you can giveLay me down - now I know how toLay me down - now I know how tolay me downNow I know how to live
