VALERIE (LITTLE MATCH GIRL):
I miss you so
Please don’t go
Away where I can’t see your face
Beside me in this lonely place
I need you now
I don’t know how
To make it through without you here
To give me hope and dry my tears

I remember
All you taught me
How you were so strong
You told me,
“Never hold back anything
Who knows what tomorrow brings?
The Fates are cruel, so don’t you let them win”
You lived your life just like a flame
That burned out fast but seared your name
Across my heart and everywhere you’d been
Caution to the wind

Some say not
Don’t burn so hot
Save something for a rainy day
But the ice and snow are here to stay

Time is flying
How I miss you
This feeling can’t be wrong
You told me
“Never hold back anything
Who knows what tomorrow brings?
The Fates are cruel, so don’t you let them win”
You lived your life just like a flame
That burned out fast but seared your name
Across my heart and everywhere you’d been
Caution to the wind

I will be with you again
Sure as I have ever been
Burn my matches to the end
Throwing caution to the wind

Getting closer
Take me with you
I know where I belong
You told me
“Never hold back anything
Who knows what tomorrow brings?
The Fates are cruel, so don’t you let them win”
You lived your life just like a flame
That burned out fast but seared your name
Across my heart and everywhere you’d been
Caution to the wind

I will be with you again
Sure as I have ever been
Burn my matches to the end
Throwing caution to the wind
I will be with you again
Sure as I have ever been
Burn my matches to the end
Throwing caution to the wind
Throwing caution to the wind
Throwing caution to the wind
Throwing caution to the wind
Throwing caution to the wind
