THE ZOMBIES - BRIEF CANDLES Intro: Esus2 F#m7/E Verse: Esus2 F#m7/E There she sits her hands are held Tight around her glass Esus2 F#m7/E She only needs to be alone She knows this mood will pass C#m6 B To realize that she was strong Bm F# And he too weak to stay And to realize that she is better off this way Chorus: A A/G Brief candles in her mind D/F# F E Bright and tiny gems of memory A A/G Brief candles burn so fine D/F# F E Leaves a light inside where she can see D A What makes it all worthwhile D B Her sadness makes her smile... Esus2 F#m7/E His alone girl fades away Left out on a limb Esus2 F#m7/E Finds he needs her more because She’s no more need for him C#m6 B He understood so very well Bm F# The things she had to say Soon he’ll understand that he is better off this way Chorus: Brief candles in his mind Bright and tiny gems of memory Brief candles burn so fine Leaves a light inside where he can see What makes it all worthwhile His sadness makes him smile... Instrumental break: F# G-5 A D F# G-5 A B Esus2 F#m7/E In the corner see his face The man just sips his drink Esus2 F#m7/E Not one feeling does he show Far too numb to think C#m6 B He does not say a single word Bm F# No word of love to say Maybe he will soon believe he’s better off this way... Chorus: Brief candles in his mind Bright and tiny gems of memory Brief candles burn so fine Leaves a light inside where he can see What makes it all worthwhile His sadness makes him smile...

La chanson évoque la solitude et la résilience d'une femme qui, malgré la tristesse d'une séparation, réalise sa force intérieure. Elle prend conscience que son ancien partenaire, trop faible pour rester à ses côtés, ne lui est pas indispensable. Les souvenirs se présentent comme de petites lumières éphémères, des "bougies brèves", qui lui rappellent ce qui compte vraiment dans sa vie. Alors qu’elle se remet de cette relation, elle trouve une certaine sérénité dans sa douleur, transformant sa mélancolie en quelque chose de positif. Le contexte semble être une réflexion sur les relations humaines et sur la façon dont chacun peut trouver sa propre voie après une désillusion. La chanson dépeint une scène d'innocence perdue, marquée par le recueillement et la recherche de la lumière intérieure. C'est une exploration des émotions que l'on traverse lorsqu'on se retrouve face à soi-même, et comment, même dans les moments sombres, il y a une possibilité de compréhension et de paix.
