I Gave My Love a Candle - 2008 Remaster

I gave my love a candle

A promise at life

And I told him when my number comes up

Winds would fill the sky

Me fixing to die

Moving down that same lonesome road

No I dont know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

You didnt have to fool me

You didnt have to lie

My love comes round like a thief in the night

But only love can make you cry

And we have walked side by side

Moving down that same lonesome road

No I dont know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Your love was like a diamond ride a wave

On a sea that calms my mind

Moving onward to a distant shore

Where the boats sail in a line

We have danced to a fateful rhyme

Moving down the same lonesome road

No I dont know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

You didnt have to fool me, no

You didnt have to lie

If it all came out so ugly

It only my love that could make you cry

And we have walked side by side

Moving down that same lonesome road

And I still dont know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Ooh ooh ooh

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
