Song lyrics by Dokken
[i]I lit a candle in your honor today
Prayed for forgiveness for the things that I said
And now I wake up and see I was wrong
All those years wasted / now come and gone
How many years have I been this way
The lines grow deeper / time fades away
Now etched in stone don't have the strength anymore
To break down these walls again
I lit a candle In Your Honor today
Everything will come around again
And you never know that maybe someday
Everything will come around again
Now I see you on the other side
Sunshine raining down upon your face
You look so beautiful that place where you live
You walk among your dreams we talked about
So I stand here and I stare
In my garden of neglect
Never noticed it before
That it's winter all the time
Was too busy staring at
Your garden that you grew in time
I can see it took a lot of years
Your colors fill my mind
I lit a candle In Your Honor today
Everything will come around again
And you never know that maybe someday
Everything will come around again
Even though the years keep passing / I reflect
About the one I truly loved and pushed away
Suddenly I stop and feel
That winter rain I know so well
And close my eyes
Wish you all the best
And you never know
I lit a candle In Your Honor today
Everything will come around
And you never know that maybe someday
Everything will come around
I lit a candle In Your Honor today
Prayed for forgiveness for the things that I said
And you never know that maybe someday
Everything will come around[/i]
I absolutely love this song and find that the lyrics fit a situation in my life that happened so long ago..
Have you ever hurt someone without meaning to, and seek forgiveness only to find that they just can't forgive ya? and no matter how many times you say that you are sorry (with everything inside of you).. you know there are no words or actions to actually convey the true sorrow that you feel.. or mend anything.
At what lengths do you go to .. to say or show you're sorry for what you said or did that hurt someone?

I've seen Dokken a few years back and WOW.
Yes I have hurt at least 1 person pretty bad and I think about it from time to time.
Sometimes I wish I would have done things different but you can't change the past.
I'm sooo happy now and I can only hope the other person found a way to be happy too.
Sometimes you have to do things so you can be happy in your life.
