A Candle In The Window lyrics

(Susan Longacre/Walt Aldridge/Gary Baker)

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 that looks like me
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
It don`t take a lot of money to know what riches are
Just a candle in the window

Maybe it`s just wishful thinking I can hear the sleigh bells ring
Almost taste the pie she`s baking, it`s Christmas Eve

And there`s a candle in the window, a flame against the night
The candle in the window, it`s like God`s perfect light
It don`t take a lot of money 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 going to be a candle burning, it`s always nice to know
It don`t take a lot of money to know what riches are
Just a candle in the window and Christmas in your heart
