VERSE (Play twice
I'll be your candle on the wa-ter,
My love for you will al---ways burn.
I know you're lost and drif-ting,
But the clouds are lif---ting,
Don't give up, you have somewhere to turn.
A- cold and friendless tide has found you,
Don't let the stormy darkness pull you down.
I'll paint a ray of hope a--round you,
Circling in the air,
Lighted by a prayer.
I'll be your candle on the wa-ter,
This flame inside of me will grow.
Keep holding on, you'll make it,
Here's my hand, so take it,
Look for me, reaching out to show,
As sure as ri-vers flow,
I'll ne-ver let you go,
I'll ne-ver let you go,
I'll ne-ver let you go.
