At Candlelight
Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)
The Room is Dark, It has Turned to Night
The Shadows are Dancing at Candlelight
The Shadows Move Slowly Across the Wall
As the Candle is carried Down the Hall.
The Candlelight is Oh So Bright
To Guide Your Way Through the Night
The Light of the Candle Will Guide Your Way
Into the Dawn of A Beautiful Day.
