Beirut - A Candle's Fire Lyrics

Artist: Beirut

Album: The Rip Tide

Genre: Rock

Oh, light a candle's fire
It carries our good name
What would you ask a campfire?
It scares me just the same

And you, you've had it all along
An endless need for games
Just don't forget, a candle's fire
Is only just a flame

I hit certain from afar
Failed to pull my weight
But you were light
We traveled through the fall
To arrive at our front gate

Tonight we rest beside the fire
A smile upon your face
Just don't forget, a candle's fire
Is only just a flame

If I had known that to carry on that way
It wouldn't show in the creases on your face
If you should go, would you carry on my name?
Just let it blow in the fog on Bishop's Lane
