A Candle in the Window

There's a road that I remember leading to a special place

Where the door was always open to a smiling face

There's a picture on the mantle of a boy who looks like me

And it's always the same, there's a stocking with my name

And a candle in the window, a flame against the night

There's a candle in the window, it's like God's perfect light

Now it don't take a lot of money, oh, to know what riches are

Just a candle in the window

Oh, and Christmas in your heart, in your heart

Maybe it's just wishful thinking

I can hear the sleigh bells ring

Almost taste the pie mama's baking

It's Christmas Eve

There's a candle in the window

There's a flame against the night

There's a candle in the window, it's like God's perfect light

Now it don't take lots of money, hmm, to know what riches are

Just a candle in the window and Christmas in your heart

Wherever the years may take me, no matter how far I go

There's gonna be a candle burning

It's always nice to know

That it don't take a lot of money, oh, to know what riches are

A simple candle in the window

Oh, and Christmas in your heart

In your heart, your heart

Just a candle in the window

Just a candle in the window
