Single Candle
Quelle: Spotify
A match will burn for long enough to light a single candle
A candle only burns until the conversation's done
One bright conversation shines a light across a lifetime
Every life has time enough to shine - like the sun
At first you couldn't listen. You held to your suspicion
'Cause this new point of view seemed bold and strange
But that simple truth's insistence melted your resistance
'Till all at once you knew that what you knew must change
Your search for easy answers only led to harder questions
But you rose up when that simple faith fell through, and
Fearless in the rubble, you kept shaking the foundations
You weren't afraid to shatter what you thought you knew
A gentle revolution that could change a generation
Your words could strike a match and light a flame
And one by one the light spread through the people of a
Nation, 'till the tyranny of hate would never be the same
On the balcony in Memphis with a bullet through your body
We heard you say a strong and gentle prayer
They try to kill the future, as if just a gun could stop you
But the heart of you is beating everywhere
