Jars Of Clay - Five Candles Lyrics
A promise or a dareI would jump if i knew you'd catch meStaring over the edgeI can't tell if you'll be here for meI close my eyes and make a wishTurn out the lights and take a breathPray that when the wick is burnedYou would say that it's all about loveChorus:You were there when i needed youYou were there when the skies broke wide, wide openYou were there when i needed youYou were there when the skies broke wide, wide openYou were never hereI remember you saidLove was more than your good intentionsEmpty boxes on the floorThings i never asked you forI pray that when the wick is burnedYou would say that it's all about love[chorus]I can't see the promise ofExcuses you fall uponI pray to god not holding onTo things you've left undone[chorus x 2]You were there when iYou were there when iYou were there when i needed you
