I Gave My Love A Candle Lyrics


I gave my love a candle
A promise at life
And I told 'em when my number comes up
Winds would fill the sky
Me I'm fix into dieMoving down that same lonesome road
No, I don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbyeYou didn't have to fool me
You didn't 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 sideMoving down that same lonesome road
No, I don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbyeYour 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 rhymeMoving down the same lonesome road
No, I don't know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbyeYou didn't have to fool me, no
You didn't have to lie
If it all came out so ugly
It's only my love that could make you cry
And we have walked side by sideMoving down that same lonesome road
And I still don't know why
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Ooh ooh ooh
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Bonnie Raitt, (born November 8, 1949) is an American blues and R&B singer, songwriter, and guitarist who was born in Burbank, California, the daughter of Broadway musical star John Raitt. Raitt began playing guitar at an early age, something not a lot of her high school girlfriends did. "I had played a little at school and at camp," she later recalled in a July 2002 interview. "My parents would drag me out to perform for my family, like all parents do, but it was a hobby—nothing more...I think people must wonder how a white girl like me became a blues guitarist.
