If I held a flame
 For those who hurt in vain
 Would you believe in me?
 If I [bad word] you
 And bared my soul to you
 Would you deceive me?
 If I failed to do
 What I set out to do
 Would [bad word] out
 Hold the candle tight
 Would [bad word] out
 Wait until it's right

 Hold on to love, hold on to me
 Hold on to love, hold on to me
 If we start to think
 About the winds of change
 Would you believe in me?
 If a shadow fell
 And told us time will tell
 Would you deceive me?
 If I couldn't say
 The words I wanted to say
 Would [bad word] out?
 Hold the candle tight
 Would [bad word] out?
 Wait until it's right
