One Candle

Warm at home on this big old smelly sofa
That makes me feel like I'm five again
It's the end of the day, the hearth is ablaze
And I'm resting my weary brain

It's funny, there's a fire full of flames
But above it, in the centre of the mantelpiece

Is One Candle, dancing in the mirror
One Candle holds my gaze
There's a fire full of flames, but
One Candle holds my gaze

It smiles this room, and it's musty and it's rosy
And it's possible that I'll doze off quite soon.
And so to bed.
Up the wooden hill we go and say goodnight until tomorrow

It's funny, there's a fire full of flames
But above it, in the centre of the mantelpiece

Is One Candle, dancing in the mirror
One Candle holds my gaze
One Candle, dancing in the mirror
One Candle holds my gaze
There's a fire full of flames, but
One Candle holds my gaze
