Lyrics

Ten years ago we played our first set We were singing for just family and our friends And our hearts beat with the rush that comes from a cheering crowd We were younger then Who could know that then We'd rise at dawn for early shows Praying backstage before we go Cry together tears of joy and hope Who knows where this goes We just hope you come along We find our way Led by the light of those eight nights and days Singing to Al Hanissim And we bless the days each year Thankful we got here Beautiful memories Lighting the candles on the sill A week in deep dark winter's when we celebrate Shining bright on the shortest days with The ones that we love Don't know what we did to deserve this light Hoping we learn to use it right But we were younger then Take us back to when We found our voice despite our fears Through ups and downs over the years We never dreamed of being here for so long And as we grow We just hope you come along We find our way Led by the light of those eight nights and day Singing to al hanissim And we bless the days each year Thankful we got here Beautiful memories lighting the candles on the sill Lighting the candles on the sill Lighting the candles on the sill One for teachers of song Two for those who sing along Three for new friends who share Four for old friends that care Five for partners by our side Six for sources of our pride Seven for those who raised us and eight Can't wait to go home We find our way Led by the light of those eight nights and days Singing to al hanissim And we bless the days each year Thankful we got here Beautiful memories lighting the candles on the sill Lighting the candles on the sill Lighting the candles on the sill
