a candle s fire

Beirut

Oh light a candle's fire,
Carries a good name
What would you ask a camp fire?
It scares me just the same...

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

I, it's certain from a far, failed to pull my weight
But you were light, you travelled through the fog,
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 not to carry on that way,
It wouldn't show in the creases of your face
If you should go, would you carry on my name?
Just let it blow, in the fog on Bishop's Lane...
