who are you?

be brave, little one
make a wish for each sad little tear
hold your head up though no one in near
someone's waiting for you

don't cry, little one
there'll be a smile where a frown used to be
you'll be front of the love that you see
someone's waiting for you

...

have faith, little one
till your hopes and wishes come true
you must try to be brave, little one
someone's waiting to love you

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

i'll be your candle on the water
till  every wave is warm and bright
my soul is there beside you
soon you'll see a golden stream of light

...

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
i'll never let you go
