Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm carrying a torch for you
I'm carrying a torch
You don't know just how much it costs
For to keep carrying a torch
[Verse 2]
Flame of love, it burns so bright
That is my desire
Keep on liftin' me, liftin' me up
Higher and higher
[Verse 3]
You're the keeper of the flame
And it burns so bright
It burns so bright
[Verse 4]
Baby, why don't we reconnect?
Move into the light
Into the light
[Verse 5]
I've been goin' to and fro on this
And I'm still carrying a torch
You must know how much it's worth
When I'm carrying a torch (Alright)
[Verse 6]
Baby, you're the keeper of the flame
And you burn so bright
You know that I burn so bright
Why, why, why, why don't we reconnect?
And move on further into the light
Into the light (Sing it)
[Verse 7]
I've been callin' you on the phone
'Cause I'm carrying the torch
I can't do it all, all on my own
'Cause I'm carrying the torch
[Verse 8]
I'm carrying a torch for you
I'm carrying a torch
I'm carryin', I'm carryin', I'm carryin'
You don't know how much it's worth
To keep, keep carrying a torch
[Verse 9]
I'm carrying a torch for you, baby
I'm carrying a torch
You know, you know, you know, you know
'Cause you don't really know
You don't really know how much it costs
For to keep carrying a torch
[Verse 10]
Carryin' a, carryin', carryin'
Carryin', carryin', carryin'
Carryin'
Carrying a to-to-to-to-to-to-torch, torch
