A Candle in the Window

There's a road that I remember

Leading to a special place

Where the door is always open

To a smiling face

There's a picture on the mantel

Of a boy who looks like me

And it's always the same

There's a stocking with my name

And a candle in the window

A flame against the night

There's a candle in the window

It's like God's perfect light

Now, it don't take a lot of money

Oh, to know what riches are

Just a candle in the window

And Christmas in your heart

May be it's just wishful thinking

I can hear the sleigh bells ring

Almost taste the pie that's Momma's baking

It's Christmas Eve

And a candle in the window

A flame against the night

There's a candle in the window

It's like God's perfect light

Now, it don't take a lot of money

Oh, to know what riches are

Just a candle in the window

And Christmas in your heart

Wherever the years may take me

No matter how far I go

There's gonna be a candle burning

It's always nice to know

Now, it don't take a lot of money

Oh, to know what riches are

A simple candle in the window

And Christmas in your heart
