Candlelight

To know her is to love her

I'm goin' undercover

To catch a glimpse but not get caught

But to see her, could be worse

If I don't get my head straight first

On second thought I guess I'll not

She's almost brighter than the sun

Seems to me to be unfair

When you consider everyone

Who pales when they compare

When they compare

Can't hold a candle to her

'Cause all the moths get in the way

And they'll begin to chew her

Entire attire until it frays

She outshines anyone

Whoever might dare to bask in

The same candlelight

Oh please, don't seat us in the back

With all the insects and the trash

She is a lady, I'm the tramp

Collecting stares from pairs close by

Then flutters in the butterfly

You just a moth drawn to the lamp

She's like an ancient artifact

Something you're lucky to have found

She'll pinch the nerves in all the necks

When she turns those heads around

Those heads around

Can't hold a candle to her

'Cause all the moths get in the way

And they'll begin to chew her

Entire attire until it frays

She outshines anyone

Whoever might dare to bask in

The same candlelight

Who may dare to bask in

The same candlelight ?

She's almost brighter than the sun

Seems to me to be unfair

When you consider everyone

Who pales when they compare

When they compare

Can't hold a candle to her

'Cause all the moths get in the way

And they'll begin to chew her

Entire attire until it frays

She outshines anyone

Whoever might dare to bask in

The same candlelight

In the same candlelight
