Willie Nelson - Both Ends of the Candle lyrics

rate me

I've been trying so hard to forget you<br />

But this chore of forgetting I find<br />

Has me burning both ends of the candle<br />

And fighting a battle with time<br />

<br />

What I'd give just to sleep for a moment<br />

But it's a luxury that I can't afford<br />

For I know that I just dream about you<br />

And my tears would start falling once more<br />

<br />

So I'm burning both ends of the candle<br />

I just hope that it lasts through the night<br />

For each moment the candle is burning<br />

Brings closer the ending of life<br />

<br />

So I'm burning both ends of the candle<br />

I just hope that it lasts through the night<br />

For each moment the candle is burning<br />

It brings closer the ending of life<br /><br />
