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...
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

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,  so alive
 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
