THE BRIEFEST TIME
Words & Music by Stephen Randall

Your candle shines
For the briefest time
And when its flame is fading out
It leaves its light behind

There are no answers
And only error in our design
Like the candle that shone for you
You leave your light behind

For the briefest time
We knew you
For the briefest time

But nothing really matters
It only lives there in our minds
We didn't climb the highest heights
We weren't first to cross the line

But you never stopped believing
You had no reason and no rhyme
And you made us what we are today
You leave your light behind

For the briefest time
We knew you
For the briefest time

For the briefest time
We knew you
For the briefest time

And when the flame was weak
And the light was growing dim
We seemed to see more clearly then
The pain we held within

Your candle shines
For the briefest time
And when its flame is fading out
It leaves it's light behind

For the briefest time
We knew you
For the briefest time

For the briefest time
We knew you
For the briefest time

about

Stephen Randall Henderson, Nevada

I'm a Brit living in Henderson, NV.

I used to be a professional songwriter, but when I wrote for other people, I lost touch with the music that was important to me personally. I forgot what music fed my soul. I put down my guitar and keyboard to pursue other adventures. Now I write from my heart and experience and for me.
