"Candle on the Water" is a song from Pete's Dragon ( 3 3 3), copywrite 1973 (i think. it might be '76, maybe), which totally rocks. you should see it.

if you want a translation of this, just message me or something and say so, i know it kinda confusing. hope you like it, i'm just trying out something new...


silver meets emerald over hunched-up forms. tentative eye-probe, cheekpink, food focus. red nudges black, frowning angry, loud. black flushes. silver gazes.

I'll be your candle on the water

My love for you will always burn

I know you're lost and drifting

But the clouds are lifting

Don't give up, you have somewhere to turn

emerald tearstorm stalks to bathroom. bronzed hand flushes repeatedly to block outside noise/hearing.

silver feet, brimming eyes, trips in. pauseslistens. 1-2-3-4-5- the flushes go on. platinum's wandspell opens door. ebony head bowed over bowl, sapphiretears born of emeralds splashing.silvershock, brimmingness dashed away by stunned porcelain. porcelain reaches tentatively, and touches blackdraped bronze.

I'll be your candle on the water

Till every wave is warm and bright

My soul is there beside you

Let this candle guide you

Soon you'll see a golden stream of light

sapphire flow suddenly stopped. emeralds flush, furious. ebonywhirl. emerald meets silver in stall (close!). tearstained cheeks pink again, deeper red. then anguish. silver widens, surprise, worry, anxiety. emerald registers, widens akin. slowly, porcelain tips meet bronze counterparts.

cue unfurling flower, red.

A cold and friendless tide has found you

Don't let the stormy darkness pull you down

I'll paint a ray of hope around you

Circling in the air,

Lighted by a prayer

hate flickers and dies in revealing gaze. hope replaces the remaining space. silver and emerald brimming again, but these sapphires leave no stain. joy radiates, burstburst silveremerald hardens, softens, gazes. porcelainbronze reach electrifies, jolts. loinstirring threatens as draped figures reach farther, harder, as flowers near

I'll be your candle on the water

This flame inside of me will grow

Keep holding on, you'll make it

Here's my hand, so take it

Look for me, reaching out to show,

As sure as rivers flow

flowers complete unfurling technique, arranged in smilefashion. gazelock between silver and emerald, magnetized. color clashes with color before extinguishmentation. porcelainveildrop over silver, bronze over emerald. porcelain tips reach and brush ebony, mussing, drawing closer, as bronze colors platinum, reordering. a millisecond stretches between flowers and then duelcrush and the petals mash

I'll never let you go

I'll never let you go

I'll never let you go

as stamenandpistils collide, entwining, day completes night, and sapphires permextinguish and fade

a candle starts burning
