One day this candle will go out
And all that will be smoke
Drifting up to the ceiling
And before you know it
That will all be gone too
I know, babe
You want me always here
I know, babe
Plants spring from the ground
Some to be taken with the storms
Some to be eaten
Some to fall rotting
None can stay forever
I know, babe
You want me always here
I know, babe
Colors fade and change
Things break down
Cities and empires fall
Even the stars in heaven above
Burn out and die in their own way
I know, babe
You want me always here
I know, babe
