Lighting Candles Lyrics
Trying not to hope too hard
For what I want
Trying not to go too far
With all the dreaming
All the disappointment
So hard to handle
I am still in the dark
Lighting candles
Late at night I lie awake
Think I should go
Catch a train to stranger towns
Where no one knows me
All the disappointment
So hard to handle
I am still in the dark
Lighting candles
All the company you keep
The things you do
Something in my heart
Will not give up on you
Now that I have got somewhere
Where will I go
Love’s a train to city lights
Where someone knows you
All the disappointment
So hard to handle
I am still in the dark
Lighting candles
I am still in the dark
Lighting candles
For what I want
Trying not to go too far
With all the dreaming
So hard to handle
I am still in the dark
Lighting candles
Think I should go
Catch a train to stranger towns
Where no one knows me
So hard to handle
I am still in the dark
Lighting candles
The things you do
Something in my heart
Will not give up on you
Where will I go
Love’s a train to city lights
Where someone knows you
So hard to handle
I am still in the dark
Lighting candles
I am still in the dark
Lighting candles

Maybe, and i could be wrong, this song is about how he's had a lot of relationships gone wrong but he still has hope (the candle in the dark) he'll find 'the one'.
the song is about loneliness. After several relationships where none of them worked out well. That frustrates the person and hopelessness follows and he is just in the dark lighting candles.
