    Story Behind the Song
    This is the story of realizing that a long term
    relationship had left me empty, and that it
    was time to move on.

    Lyrics
    When you were a candle I was the flame
    Flickering and fading, always, with the breath of every breeze that came
    But when the wind had passed I used to burn more brightly
    But long ago expired the fuel to feed the fading flicker back to light

    You used to be a river and I was your bed
    you washed me clean and set me free, I wandered ever where your current led
    But now I am a canyon, as wide as I am deep
    you washed away the passion with the love you tried to take for yours to keep

    I feel that I am empty spent of love I used to be
    And love I had a-plenty, but ne'er enough for thee
    I'm salvaging this shell so I can find a love to fill this hole in me

    You sit out by the ocean, admiring a shell
    an ear to hear your dreams of love and secrets that you're brave enough to tell
    And turning your ear to it, its words begin to flow
    telling you a tale of love and secrets that it's proud enough to know

    But that candle can't burn brighter than the spark that gives it flame
    and the canyon only speaks a fading echo of your name
    and the ear that hears is no more than a cold and empty shell
    and the voice it lost so long ago breathes one last word of love to wish you well.
    and the voice it lost so long ago breathes one last word of love to wish you well.
