Lyrics Bonnie Raitt

Bonnie Raitt

I Gave My Love a Candle

I gave my love a candle

A promise at life

And I told æ…½m when my number comes up

Winds would fill the sky

Me I抦 fixinto die

Moving down that same lonesome road

No I don抰 know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

You didn抰 have to fool me

You didn抰 have to lie

My love comes 憆ound like a thief in the night

But only love can make you cry

And we have walked side by side

Moving down that same lonesome road

No I don抰 know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Your love was like a diamond ride a wave

on a sea that calms my mind

Moving onward to a distant shore

Where the boats sail in a line

We have danced to a fateful rhyme

Moving down the same lonesome road

No I don抰 know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

You didn抰 have to fool me, no

You didn抰 have to lie

If it all came out so ugly

It抯 only my love that could make you cry

And we have walked side by side

Moving down that same lonesome road

And I still don抰 know why

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Ooh ooh ooh

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
