I tried to do all that I can

But the churches have run out of candles

I tried to give you all I own

But the bankers have run out of loaners

Its always just that little bit more

That doesnt get you what youre looking for

I tried to block the cabin door

But the churches have run out of candles

I tried to lend a helping hand

But the rooms have all run out of pamphlets

I tried to cook it up and turn

The kitchen has run out of canned bits

Its always just that little bit more

That doesnt get you what youre looking for

I tried a beggin on the cabin floor

But the churches have run out of candles

Turn one day in the cathedral

I finally lit you a candle

And all along the vaulted halls

The virgins did smile from their mantles

Its always just that little bit more

That doesnt get you what youre looking for

But gets you where you need to go

But the churches have run out of candles

Its always just that little bit more

That doesnt get you what youre looking for

But gets you where you need to go

But the churches have run out of candles

Its always just that little bit more

That doesnt get you what youre looking for

But gets you where you need to go

But the churches have run out of candles
