myfoolishness

My Foolishness Shines Through

As I light the candle here

And look into the flame

I wonder where you are tonight

If thoughts of me you overcame

All the things we ever did

Drift into my mind

I feel a little smile come

It's a smile and tears combined

It was so very long ago

You felt you had to go

There was nothing I could do

I just let you fly away, you know

So now I really understand

Our love just wasn't true

You didn't fly back home to me

In the flame

My foolishness shines through
