The kiss... sweetest
And touch... so warm
The smile... kindest
In this world,
So cold and strong
 
So close to the flame
Burning brightly
It won't fade away
And leave us lonely
 
The arms... safest
And words... all good
The faith... deepest
In this world, 
So cold and cruel
 
So close to the flame
Burning brightly
It won't fade away
And leave us lonely
 
So close to the flame
Burning brightly
(It) won't fade away
And leave us lonely

Close to the flame
Burning brightly
(It) won't fade away
(And) leave us lonely
