E2 F#m7/E
There she sits her hands are held
E
Tight around her glass
E2 F#m7/E
She only needs to be alone
E E/D#
She knows this mood will pass
C#m6 B
To realize that she was strong
Bm F#
And he too weak to stay
Bm Bm/A C D
And to realize that she is better off this way
A A/G
Brief candles in her mind
D/F# F E
Bright and tiny gems of memory
A A/G
Brief candles burn so fine
D/F# F E
Leaves a light inside where she can see
D A
What makes it all worthwhile
D B
Her sadness makes her smile...
E2 F#m7/E
His alone girl fades away
E
Left out on a limb
E2 F#m7/E
Finds he needs her more because
E E/D#
She's no more need for him
C#m6 B
He understood so very well
Bm F#
The things she had to say
Bm Bm/A C D
Soon he'll understand that he is better off this way
Brief candles in his mind
E2 F#m7/E
In the corner see his face
E
The man just sips his drink
E2 F#m7/E
Not one feeling does he show
E E/D#
Far too numb to think
C#m6 B
He does not say a single word
Bm F#
No word of love to say
Bm Bm/A C D
Maybe he will soon believe he's better off this way...
