The candle of June
Will wax and wane like the moon
I wish I could live and die
And be reborn in July
To burn for you another time
But I'll just remember
I see lovers on the hill
Watch the clouds move, lying still
She runs her fingers through the grass
I wish I were the light that passed
Into your dark eyes when you laughed
But I'll just remember
The shimmering leaves
Of those cottonwood trees
Whisper goodbye to the sun
I wish in the night you'd come
Melt in the darkness, be as one
But I'll just remember
