Candles burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Candles burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Jah, in all my days
I'm so ashamed
To see what's really happening
They're running all about
They're so out of order
And have no behavior
Candles burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Candles burning at both ends
How can they last the night
Jah, give I the knowledge now
To except that which I cannot change
Give I the wisdom to know the difference
And give I the courage to change what I can
Candles burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Candles burning at both ends
How can they ever expect to learn
If they don't listen?
How can they ever expect to learn
If they don't look and see?
Experiences of life
Have taught them nothing
Know not that it is they
And them alone can set us free
Candles burning in the night
Just like a child's life
We've got to save them
Candles burning at both ends
How can they last the night
[Incomprehensible]
Just like a child's life
