Do you stand alone in a crowd
Do you always do your best
Head held high and feeling proud
Do you whisper or speak aloud
Or like a sheep go with the rest
Do you stand alone in a crowd
Straight and tall and head unbowed
Are you righteous or are you blessed
Head held high and feeling proud
Seeds of doubt we must unshroud
Are you ready to sit the test
Do you stand alone in a crowd
No matter how you are endowed
If you give when you are pressed
Head held high and feeling proud
If fruits of wisdom you have ploughed
I welcome you to be my guest
Do you stand alone in a crowd
Head held high and feeling proud
Bathe with me in candlelight.
I melt when you say my name.
Hold me close and hold me tight
Sparks we flash will soon ignite
fiery passion and delight.
Stay with me all through the night
Your golden glow makes things right,
go out, then it's not the same.
Hold me close and hold me tight
Darkness is a lonely sight,
