Loneliness is my only guest,
Who visits me alone at night.
When it comes I light two candles,
Just the way it was.
And pretend the flames become your eyes...

Emptiness is a friend I guess.
The shadow played upon the wall.
If I let the candles take me,
I can see your face.
And remember hearing someone call your name...

My candles are crying...
O-o-o-o-h!
My candles are crying...
O-o-o-o-h!
They′re crying for you,
They′re waiting for you.
I′m waiting for you...

Is it you knocking at my door?
Or maybe just a ghostly wind.
How I wish that you were here,
Sitting by my side.
And you′ll bring me back to life again tonight...

My candles are crying...
O-o-o-o-h!
My candles are crying...
O-o-o-o-h!
They′re crying for you.
They′re waiting for you.
I′m waiting for you...

My candles are crying...
O-o-o-o-h!
My candles are crying...
O-o-o-o-h!
They′re crying for you.
They′re waiting for you.
I′m waiting for you...

I′m waiting for you...
