“Colored Candles” - L.E. Project.
“New Chanukah release from L.E. Project. Colored Candles is a fresh, heartfelt cover of the classic Destiny song from the 1980s, about a Yid who thinks he has moved past his old life until the menorah and colored candles bring him and his whole block back to their fathers’ hadlakas neiros. A warm, nostalgic song to play for Chanukah this year.”Credits

Lyrics:
On his block of sprawling lawns and fancy cars
He was so proud that he’d come so far
The greatest of ease, he moved through high societies
That grocer’s boy from the city streets.
He’d long since gone and changed his name
You know, it was the only way, that he could play the game
With neighbors like the Richardson’s, the William’s and the Jones
What could he do with a name like Cohen
But he had one memory, yeah his father he did see
Lighting colored candles on the windowsill
Eight days a year he’d light another candle every night
They lingered in his memory still
In December came home from school a little girl called Sue
She held a picture of a tree she drew
All the kids in my class have one she said with a tear
And could we have one in our home this year
He didn’t know what to do, with his little daughter sue
Although her desires he wished to fulfil
My dear Sue listen to me, something better than a tree
That lingers in my memory still
Next day he came home from work, menorah in his hand
His dear wife said to him Joe, I don’t understand
We’ve worked so hard to get where we are today
What will we do, what will the neighbors say?
He lit those candles anyway, there were five that night
And from his window to the street glowed lights
They were burning for an hour, maybe a little more
When suddenly Mr. Richardson, stood there by the door
-
He said would it be ok, if a word to you I say
Something about those candles you must know
Yes they bring back memories of my father I still see
As he lit those candles many years ago
He stepped outside there on that night and boy was he surprised
He couldn’t believe what he saw, he couldn’t believe his eyes
From all the houses on their block glowed the candle lights
From windowsills out into the night
-
Oh they had one memory, yes their father’s they did see
Lighting colored candles on the windowsill
Eight days a year they’d light, another candle every night
It lingered in their memory still Receive SMS online on sms24.me
