about

My mom used to tell me "Better to light one candle than to curse the darkness".

lyrics

Light One Candle
Words and Music By Titiksava Karunika Das

There’s a darkness comin’ over, comin’ over the world today
Can anyone deny it, just look at what the papers say
There’s a big explosion, someone’s crying about the war
But can anybody out there tell me just exactly what we came here for?

Light one candle Cursing the darkness never helps to see
Light one candle I can feel a shadow coming over me
Light one candle Illumination the enlightening key

A simple act of kindness, a friendly word or a little smile
Can really make a difference to one who’s hurting or a little child
And if you’ve got the spirit, don’t hide away your inner light
Let the people all around you, share the love that you feel inside

**Repete Chorus**

Sometimes I can’t believe what’s going down
But does it really come as such a big surprise
Are you gonna fight it, are you gonna fight it
Or have they pulled the wool over your eyes

Solo

There’s a darkness comin’ over, comin’ over the world today
Can anyone deny it, just look at what the papers say

Light one candle Cursing the darkness never helps to see
Light one candle I can feel a shadow coming over me
Light one candle Lend a hand and set your brother free
Light one candle You’ve got the power to change somebody’s destiny
Light one candle Light one candle
