I tried hundred proof whiskey to just fuel the flame That just keeps on burning so true There’s no other light that shines quite as bright As this torch that I carry for you
I’ve tried to forget you but it just can’t be done My old heart just won’t love someone new No I’ve never found a way to lay down This torch that I carry for you
My heart will never leave your shadow, dear I know I can’t have you but just let me be there ‘Cause I’ll make it all right if you’ll stand in the light Of this torch that I carry for you
Yes I’ll make it all right if you’ll stand in the light Of this torch that I carry for you Oh, this torch that I carry for you (Carry for you)
