I was just recently introduced to this song. Never had the chance to watch Pete's Dragon, growing up. And now this song means so much to me. My mom just passed a month ago and everytime I hear this it makes me think of her being my candle on the water, the stormy sea that I'm now having to find my way in. Her soul will always be there guiding me, she'll never let me go! I love you, Mom! ❤
My friend send me here because I lost and the stormy darkness bring me down and to be honest the first time hearing this I felt little and now I feel emotional and am grateful for my friend being there for me she is the only one who I can turn to and trust here a little advises from someone who depressed not everyone means, there always peoples who will be there for you, there is always hope weather you can see it or not, And last but not least suicide is not the answer because life is beautiful but if you do decide to commit suicide then I hope you find the peace you looking for as for me I will keep fighting depression until the end stay strong everyone
On this day in 1977 {November 3rd} the Disney movie "Pete's Dragon" opened in theaters across the U.S.A. Five month later on April 13th, 1978 it premiered in Helen Reddy's native Australia... The film was nominated for two Academy Awards; "Best Score" and "Best Original Song" for 'Candle on the Water' {the winner was 'You Light Up My Life'}... R.I.P. Mr. Disney {1901 - 1966} and Ms. Reddy celebrated 72nd birthday nine days ago on October 25th...
This is my song for my late mother. We loved watching Pete's Dragon together and I have many memories of listening to this song with her. I feel like I can hear her singing this to me from heaven.
I am listening to this with a very heavy heart right now...my beloved pet mouse, Barry Fitz, passed away a few hours ago, and I dedicate this song to him. RIP Barry Fitz...I love you and I'll see you in Heaven one day. I hope they are enjoying their new angel
Totally can relate to this my hamster was super chill and loving literally gave me kisses and I would walk around with him on my shoulder and then one morning I woke up and he died
It's Helen Reddy's birthday today. Thought I'd share, thought I don't remember this movie very well, this song stuck out and for a good reason. It's really beautiful and sweet. Great job.
Thursday 6th October 2022. Helen Reddy was a beautiful woman. Her soul is beside you. Always your candle on the water. Bless her and blesa you. Love from Virginia Clark.?! ;) ;( :) 😀🌍🎵💜🐋🐉🌈🌌
As much as I love this song I can never listen to this song without bawling and my heart breaking.. my best friend went missing 13 years ago on thanksgiving and this was our song
I had this on a Disney tape as a kid, but to this day I’ve never seen the film Pete’s Dragon. I always thought it was sung by his mother to him rather that by a woman to her lover, it always sounded like that to me.
+Joe Yaroch Agreed. I have this on DVD and have grown to love it. If they screw this up, I'm going to send them a really serious and angry rant letter.
Has anyone found this sung by a male? My husband always sang this and passed 12/25/21 and it was going to be his song to his granddaughter at her wedding?
i love ❤️ I’ll be your candle on the water by Helen reddy it’s from my Disney’s Pete’s dragon i wish it would be on my own movie Disney’s super Katie the arrive of Disney’s Encanto were mirable sees the moon 🌙 and Stars 🌟 she missed her family so much and she look’s at the candle 🕯 and she sings that song 🎵 and we saw her sing 🎵 that song 🎵 and she is really misses her family so much and we will cheer her up first thing in the morning
I remember hearing this song in a dream once and I knew it was the Lord Jesus Christ himself talking to me, using this song as a way to offer me salvation.
I always imagined this as Pamela Voorhees singing to Jason Voorhees, poor guy was bullied as a child as he had a deformity... The only one that loved him was his mother..

I’m so sorry 😢 about your mom she will always be with you and that song will always be beautiful
@Max x Roxanne 4ever your welcome 😊
I think of my mother as well when I hear this. I first heard this song on the Disney Buddy Songs CD. She always enjoyed teaching the words to me

Helen Reddy really does this song justice, without her, this song would not have the power and the light that it has, sung by her so beautifully.
Helen reddy was the best singer and her voice was beautiful
Nah, Joe did it better
I wish Susan Boyle would sing this song. It would suit her so perfectly.
Melissa0774 omg yes yes yes!!!!
Oh yeah

They better at least have a cover of this in the remake coming this August. If they don't, I'll be really ticked!

When you think about Jesus this song fits.
its “a cold and friendless tide has found you” not “...cold and friendless time” - its a nautical metaphor afterall.
