about

I wrote Candle Flame for a friend who has seen quite some pain and hardships in her past and I wanted this song to serve as a reminder that it is possible to let it go. You don't need to let the past define you and you can open up to new opportunities, joy, love and trust in life.

lyrics

Honey I know that you‘ve seen a lot
And honey I know that you‘ve cried
But I won’t hurt you
I’ll be kind

And honey I know of the wars you’ve fought
And trust me, I know of your wounds
But I still see you through the pain
And I pray you see the same

So whisper to the candle flame
And tell it your secrets
And I’ll do the same
Stories of your darkest days
But now they’re just memories
So leave them to the flame

But honey just know you’re not all alone
Your stories are heard by the stars
Oh they hear you
Don’t be afraid

An honey I know that you see the truth
And you do not need to hold on
Just let it go
Just let it go
Just let it go

So whisper to the candle flame
And tell it your secrets
While I’ll do the same
Stories of your darkest days
But now they’re just memories
So let them burn away

Leave them to the flames
Let them burn away
Leave them to the flames
Let them burn away
Leave them to the flames
Let them burn away
Leave them to the flames

So whisper to the candle flame
And tell it your secrets
While I’ll do the same
Stories of your darkest days
But now they’re just memories
So leave them to flame
