Light a Roman Candle with Me Lyrics

by Fun

Light a roman candle with me
Just a roman candle, you can wear your sandals
and I'll pour you just one cup of tea.
Then you can go and rest
you haven't seen my best, so...

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e71521-fun~light_a_roman_candle_with_me_lyrics.html ]
Just spend an evening with me
Just a lazy evening, then you could be leaving
or 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.

If we were honest and both wrote a sonnet together
a sandwich with everything on it,
at least we would know that the sparks didn't glow
but 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 understand
the 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 old
But for now we're young, we smell good, we're alone...

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 old
Oh I know, it goes on, it gets old...

Light a roman candle with me.
Just a roman candle.
Just a perfect apple.
