Truth has many shades. It's not a matter of black and white, but many grays.

I'm like a candle flame,

small, gentle, warm and quite tame.

 

I am like a candle flame, 

Treat me one way, I'll treat you the same.

 

I am like a candle flame,

While I'm still burning it is unwise to walk away.

 

I am like a candle flame,

Blow out the fire, but my heat will stay.

 

My love,

I am a candle flame.
If you forget me
I will burn your house down.
