lyrics

Watching in the dark
The contrast is so stark
Candlelit reflections
Leave a lasting mark
I don't want to sleep
Something here feels so right
By the eight candles
By the lights

Streets are quiet and still
Room is slightly chilled
Warmed up by these small flames
Feeling so fulfilled
Reminisce the years
Grateful that I'm here tonight
Through the window
See me sitting by the lights

And the feeling amplifies
As each night passes me by
While I stare
I wouldn't dare
Ruin a moment as perfect as this
Menorah-lit bliss

Troubles are ignored
Stay forevermore
Now I have a connection
I've seldom felt before
Take this beauty in
Marveling at such a sight
In the darkness
I stay by the lights
Yes on Chanukah
I stay by the lights

And the feeling amplifies
As each night passes me by
While I stare
I wouldn't dare
Ruin a moment as perfect as this
Menorah-lit bliss

Troubles are ignored
Stay forevermore
Now I have a connection
I've seldom felt before
Take this beauty in
Marveling at such a sight
In the darkness
I stay by the lights
Yes on Chanukah
I stay by the lights
