Candles anew

My gifts of love await you 
With these candles anew,

and I pray the day comes,
that I might light them with you,

then I will know that all this heartache
has not been in vain,
as I show the love I hold for you,
without refrain. 

God, why would a man ever deny,
in just the way I did,
a love so strong and deep and true,
that his foolish heart hid.
