Paroles
0:24Though Adam was a friend of mine I did not know him well
0:30He was alone into his distance
0:34He was deep into his well
0:39I could guess what he was laughing at but I couldn't really tell
0:45Now the story's told that Adam jumped but I've been thinking that he fell
0:58Together we went traveling as we received the call
1:04His destination India and I had none at all
1:12Well I still remember laughing with our backs against the wall
1:19So free of fear we never thought that one of us might fall
1:27I sit before my only candle but it's so little light to find my way
1:40Now this story unfolds before my candle
1:47Which is shorter every hour as it reaches for the day
1:54But I feel just like a candle in the way
2:00I guess I'll get there but I wouldn't say for sure
2:22When we parted we were laughing still as our goodbyes were said
2:28And I never heard from him again as each our lives we led
2:36Except for once in someone else's letter that I read
2:43Until I heard the sudden word that a friend of mine was dead
2:51I sit before my only candle like a pilgrim sits beside the way
3:03Now this journey appears before my candle
3:10As a song that's growing fainter the harder that I play
3:17But I fear before I end I'll fade away
3:23But I guess I'll get there though I wouldn't say for sure
3:45Though Adam was a friend of mine I did not know him long
3:51And when I stood myself beside him I never though I was as strong
3:59Still it seems he stopped his singing in the middle of his song
4:06Well I'm not the one to say I know but I'm hoping he was wrong
4:14I'm holding out my only candle though it's so little light to find my way
4:27Now this story's been laid beneath my candle
4:34And it's shorter every hour as it reaches for the day
4:41Yes I feel just like a candle in the way
4:46I hope I'll get there but I never pray
