Light A Roman Candle With Me
Light a roman candle with me.Just a roman candle,You can wear your sandalsAnd I'll pour you just one cup of tea.Then you can go and restYou haven't seen my best, so...
Just spend an evening with me.Just a lazy evening,Then you could be leavingOr we could stay and talk until three.I will think it's magic and I'll hope you'll agree, so...
Light a roman candle with me.Just a roman candle.Just a perfect apple.
Light a roman candle with me.Just a roman candle.Just a perfect apple.
If we were honestAnd both wrote a sonnetTogether a sandwich with everything on it,At least we would knowThat the sparks didn't glowBut we owe it to ourselves to try,So we aim and ignite!
So often I call and I plead with you:"Give me a chance!"It's not often that I understandThe ins and the outs of what's wrong and what's right.So don't think of tomorrow tonight.
Oh, I know, it goes on, it gets oldBut for now we're young, we smell good, we're alone, so alive.
You look for a legend,I'm looking for common ground.Your heart isn't breaking,And mine isn't making a sound.
Oh I know, it goes on, it gets oldOh I know, it goes on, it gets old, so...
Light a roman candle with me.Just a roman candle.Just a perfect apple.
