As a younger girl you didn't have much There ain't a lot to have on our side of town The streets are dirty - we got by
Then one day we kinda lost touch You packed, you moved away from our side of town You wanted fine things money can buy
You found people with money Bright lights that turned night to day Just like a candle light, you're really burning bright But just how long can you stay?
Burn like a candle, it's your turn to burn Fire's getting higher, girl, you've got no shame Burn like a candle, you'll run out of flame
Just the other day, I saw you on the street You didn't know me, you were flying so high Your face was empty, head in the sky You looked so thin, no shoes were on your feet Your crystal beads were brighter than your eyes You didn't see me - walked right on by
The trip your taking goes one way The train to nowhere goes fast Just like a candle light, you're really burning bright But just how long can you last?
Burn like a candle, it's your turn to burn Fire's getting higher, girl, you've got no shame Burn like a candle, you'll run out of flame
Burn like a candle, it's your turn to burn Fire's getting higher, girl, you've got no shame Burn like a candle, you'll run out of flameTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
