A Candle's Fire Lyrics

Lyric discussion by MissCharlotteSometimes 

Beautiful song, although I'm unclear as to its meaning. I'm guessin' he or she is saying that they have the flame, but it needs more to last. Actually, I haven't a clue and the two bozos before me didn't bother to offer up an interpreation :) Geesh!

He's talking about a girl he once knew, but things fizzled out just like a flame runs out....he blames himself for "not pulling his weight" and for not acting like a good significant other. "if I had known not to carry on that way, it wouldn't show in the creases of your face". that's my interpretation.

hope that helps.
