During those candle burns

Drip from my mouth and onto the end of the candle
Drip from the end of the candle and onto my hand
Fall from my hand to the floor
Fall from the floor to my hands and knees

Descend and rise
Move along and realize
All we have is time to know
How we go, above, below.

Sing to my summer and on into fall
Sing into fall and sing to my winter
Sing from my winter and all through my spring
Sing until spring falls away into summer

Descend and rise
Move along and realize
All we have is time to know
How we go, above, below.
