Story Behind The Song

Love the idea of hanging in there to rekindle love....so easy to let old anger and hurt ruin second chances. I wrote this after blowing a second chance for love.

Song Description

When you're a bartender and it's late at night and the band's gone home, it's very hard not to over hear conversations...man, the couple in the corner got to me.

Lyrics

I'm breaking down the bar, stacking glasses on the wall.
The money's cashed out, it's way past last call.
I'm sweeping tears like peanut shells off this weary floor,
crushed hurt feelings and broken hearts blowing out the door....I've heard it all before.
chorus:
There's a never-ending conversation in the corner booth,
been there for hours hashing out the truth,
feels like a thousand miles across the table,
will they find love tonight, love in the candle light.

He tells her, "I miss you most on Sundays, I miss your kiss good night,
and every waking hour, there's something more I miss".
Can we start again? Can we take it slow?
Tears start to take them where words can't go....where words can't go.
chorus:

Bridge: Candle burns and dances to their whispers,
burns away the hurt that can blow this candle out.

I can't bear to tell them I'm waiting to close,
so I hand them my keys and say, "Lock up when you go,
Keep your doors wide open, lock mine real tight,
Stay... get love right... for all of us tonight.

You're a never-ending conversation in the corner booth,
been there for hours hashing out the truth,
feels like a thousand miles across that table,
you can find love tonight, here in the candle light.
you can find love tonight, here in the candle light?
