~ Candles Burn In Our
Hearts ~
September 11, 2001,
we still see all we have
lost
In the stars we will
always see their shining
light
Their world will never
end, this we understand
as the candles burn on
in the night
Never can you die,
because it's for freedom
that you stand
We hear your cry up in
the sky
Father, mother, sister,
brother, or an
everlasting friend
You are the happiness
that we knew
we cannot change the
past, but your love will
always last
When the candle went
out, there was silence,
to the sky
But, we will keep you in
our heart
our soul becomes your
life
Every day that passes by
we think of September 11
2001,
that awful day we had to
say goodbye
We will keep the candle
alight, will the pain
begin to die
We will remember
everyone, even those we
do not know
God took them into
Heaven where the candles
ever glow
Life is everlasting, yet
on this earth we stay
trying to forget the
suffering, only just
enough
So we can live on, yet
with your names upon our
lips
and a candle glowing
always, in our heart of
love.

Candles never die.
They live in Heaven
and we on earth carry
candles in our hearts
