Candle Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Innocence is a light beam, you're doing your thing
With your arm out your window up Highway 9
When it's too much to handle, burn me a candle
If you don't have a candle, let me burn on your mind
[Verse 2]
The song of the sirens caught up with me downwind
My nose started bleeding by the second note
Heaven is a motel with a telephone seashell
Well, check-out's at eleven, and don't ask for more time
[Chorus]
Well, did your eyes change? I remember them blue
Or were they always hazel?
Still the same face with a line or two
The same love I always knew
[Verse 3]
I try not to call, but I think I'm being followed
It's been about an hour or so
I hate for you to hear me scared, otherwise, I'm well
I guess you're still the first place I go
[Chorus]
Did your eyes change? I remember them blue
Or were they always hazel?
Still the same face with a line or two
The same love I always knew
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Did your eyes change? I remember them blue
Or were they always hazel?
Still the same face with a line or two
The same love I always knew
