Five Candles by Jars of Clay
Verse:
A promise or a dare
I would jump if I knew you'd catch me
Staring over the edge
I can't tell if you'll be here for me
I close my eyes and make a wish
Turn out the lights and take a breath
Pray that when the wick is burned
You would say that it's all about love
Chorus:
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide, wide
open
You were there when I needed you
You were there when the skies broke wide, wide
open
Verse:
You were never here
I remember you said
Love was more than your good intentions
Empty boxes on the floor
Things I never asked you for
I pray that when the wick is burned
You would say that it's all about love
[Chorus]
A#m7add5
I can't see the promise of
A#m7add5
Excuses you fall upon
I pray to God not holding on
B# A#m7add5
B#
To things you've left undone
[Chorus x 2]
You were there when I
You were there when I
You were there when I needed you
