Lyrics
As the stars light up the desert sky, he rests his weary eyes
Another stretch, time away, he thinks of reasons why
He pictures their young faces looking through the window pane
As the candles burn down slowly, until he comes home again
And there are 21 candles, one for each day he was gone
The kids would light one every night as a guiding light to home
They'd gaze out through the window pane on the day that he'd return
As the 21 candles slowly burned
She spent her days teaching what the children had to know
It helped to keep her mind at ease when time was moving slow
So strong and full of courage, always feeling so alone
Waiting for that final candle, to bring her lover home
And there are 21 candles, one for each day he was gone
The kids would light one every night as a guiding light to home
They'd gaze out through the window pane on the day that he'd return
As the 21 candles slowly burned
They placed the final candle on the window sill
The night so warm and clear the trees were so still
Their smiles lit up their faces as through that window pane
A man,yes their daddy, had come back home again
And there are 21 candles, one for each day he was gone
The kids would light one every night as a guiding light to home
They'd gaze out through the window pane on the day that he'd return
As the 21 candles slowly burned
As the 21 candles slowly burned
