light a candle for me - billy joe shaver lyrics
would you light a candle for me, babe?
even though i have done done you wrong
if i called you up around midnight
would you pray with me on the phone?
i recall the winters we weathered
i felt your heart beat with mine
you pulled me so deeply inside you
our bodies so sweetly entwined
you know it hurt me to hurt you
but i felt my deal goin’ down
now i’m hung in the hooks of the highway
i’m gone and i can’t turn around
these devils out here done took me
’cause they know that i’s a good hearted man
it’s too late to pray for my life now
but my soul can be saved by your hands
would you light a candle for me, babe?
and don’t snuff it out ’til the dawn
when that gamey —- stops his crowin’
my soul’ll come winging back home
like a deaf man gazin’ sadly
at a blind man singin’ his song
there’s a world of difference between us
but the grace of god makes us one
would you light a candle for me, babe?
