[Verse] The night slips quietly across the floor A single candle flickers by the door Old radio hums a broken tune Iâm staring shadows in this motel room [Pre-Chorus] Every crack inside the wall Whispers stories that I recall [Chorus] And the flame burns low, but it wonât go out Keeps a little hope where Iâm filled with doubt In the dark, that candleâs all I see Holding on to whatâs left of me [Verse] Letters folded tight in my worn-out hands Words that I wonât dare to understand Memories dance in the candlelight Lost in the silence of this long lost night [Pre-Chorus] Every echo in the hall Tells me Iâm still standing tall [Chorus] And the flame burns low, but it wonât go out Keeps a little hope where Iâm filled with doubt In the dark, that candleâs all I see Holding on to whatâs left of me [Bridge] When the morning breaks, it wonât feel the same But this tiny fire keeps me in the game One small spark in the smoky gloom A fragile light in a lonely room [Chorus] And the flame burns low, but it wonât go out Keeps a little hope where Iâm filled with doubt In the dark, that candleâs all I see Holding on to whatâs left of me [Outro] Holding on, holding on That candleâs light leads me home Holding on, holding on In this room, Iâm not alone
