Colored Candles is the story of a successful Jewish man who tries to fit in and assimilate, but he remembers the menorah his father lit and decides to display a menorah in his window after his daughter wants to have a xmas tree. This is a very moving song since it turns out that other Jews in his neighborhood come forward and light their own menorahs after seeing his one menorah of colored candles displayed in his window!
