cold winter's night and the fire is burning low

outside the temperature is heading ten below

the kids say they miss you when i turn out their light

how i wish you were here to share this night

i'll keep a candle in the window for you

its silent flame is my love shining through

i pray it's bright enough to light your way home

this candle's burning bright

this candle's burning bright

this candle burning bright for you

i've been waiting through this late november night

the snowflakes dance outside in the candles light

the falling snow makes this old world look brand new

i wish i could share this night with you

i'll keep a candle in the window for you

it's silent flame is my love shining through

i pray it's bright enough to light your way home

this candle's burning bright

this candle's burning bright

this candle's burning bright for you

this candle's burning bright

this candle's burning bright

this candle's burning bright for you
