Candlelight
* Also recorded by Barbara Cook
Don't let the sun go down on me
I do not want to be alone tonight
We'll be right, you'll see
Night is a shadow on the soul
and if you want to set me wholly free,
stay by me tonight
‘cause I've been afraid of love,
knowing I need you to stay
I've been ashamed of love,
knowing you're leaving me
day after day,
I'm begging you, pleading
I like you best
when night runs a shadow on the soul
No more empty hands to hold
Don't let the evening sun go down
I haven't found a way to trade the night
Sheer delight
Burning bright, candlelight
Lay me own - astound me
Not a sound - surround me
Skies unbound, I'm unwound
Lay me down
I've been afraid to love
but this is no time to hesitate
I've been ashamed to love
but lay me down, I just can't wait
I like you best
when night is a pleasure you can give
Lay me down, now I know how to
Lay me down, now I know how to
Lay me down
Now I know how to live
