A friend is like a candle
To help you light your way
As you travel through this life
They light the way
To help you handle
Life’s worries and woes
They light the way
Along the path
So you don’t stumble and fall
When you are trying
To get to an open door
When one door is closed another will open
And a friend will light the way
If they light your path
Life with be easier on you
And even thunder lighting and wind
Can not put out the light
That they have lit
For you
When you are feeling down and blue
And everything seems dark
A friend will come along
And give a candle a spark
And light it up
And they will help
To brighten up your day
When things are going rough
And life is getting tough
They will come along
With a candle burning strong
And help you to see
The light
And to help you
To make things
Alright
Never blow a friends candle out
For that would break their heart
No doubt
If for some reason
The friendship should end
Remember the candle
They held for you
To help you walk
The path of life
If they should leave this Earth
To enter Heavens gate
Remember
The candle they lit
Is still with you
You carry it in your Heart
They may be gone
But the candle they lit
Did not depart with them
It will be there forever
To always light
Your way
And if your path grows dark
Look for the light
That your friend
Has left behind
Look and you will see
The candle
Burning bright
And it will help
To guide you through
Your life
Never blow the light out
Never be that mean
And always remember
The ones
Who helped light
You way
So think of friends as candles
And as a light
To help to guide you
Throughout your life
And remember
To be a candle too
And light the way
For your friends
As they walk the path
Of life
