A candle on the floor

Verse I
Sorry I’m late again;
I’m so tired now—
Caught in the pouring rain,
It really dragged me down.
Let’s go straight to bed;
I’ll skip our talk again.
Too many things unsaid—
One day they’ll haunt my brain.
And so it repeats,
Until the day before.
The only thing you left—
A candle on the floor.

Chorus
Please, someone take my eyes,
’Cause I was so blind
For what I left behind—
Oh, what I left behind!
And take my heart as well;
It beats for nothing now.
Gone is my farewell,
Forgotten is my vow.

Verse II
That candle was burnt down,
A witness in the gloom
To all your quiet breakdowns
Inside that lonely room.
It warmed you through the nights
More than I ever did;
It scared away your frights,
While I, as always, hid.
And so it repeats,
Until the day before.
The only thing I own—
A candle on the floor.

Chorus
Please, someone take my eyes,
’Cause I was so blind
For what I left behind—
Oh, what I left behind!
And take my heart as well;
It beats for nothing now.
Gone is my farewell,
Forgotten is my vow.
