Five Candles (You Were There) - Jars Of Clay
A promise or a dare I would jump if I knew you'd catch me Staring over the edge I can't tell if you'll be here for me I close my eyes and make a wish Turn out the lights and take a breath Pray that when the wick is burned You would say that it's all about love Chorus: You were there when I needed you You were there when the skies broke wide, wide open You were there when I needed you You were there when the skies broke wide, wide open You were never here I remember you said Love was more than your good intentions Empty boxes on the floor Things I never asked you for I pray that when the wick is burned You would say that it's all about love [Chorus] I can't see the promise of Excuses you fall upon I pray to God not holding on To things you've left undone [Chorus x 2] You were there when I You were there when I You were there when I needed you
