No one can hold a candle to you

No one can hold a candle to you
I have searched but found it to be true
Everyone else is hiding in the shade
Masked by the light you made
No one can hold a candle to you

I have tried to blow it out, but you
Took my breathe away the first time I saw you,
The words you said echo off the walls of my mind,
Each day I am longing for something impossible to find,

Leaving me like this never crossed your mind,
But somehow to others beauty and virtues I am now blind
You are achieving everything I thought you could and more
Everyone else is just a shadow of the image that I saw

They say there is plenty of fish in the sea,
But in the dark depths I only see you and me,
I would breathe in the water to die
But it only comes back out of my eyes as I cry.
