Light a roman candle with me

E G#m C#m G#m

Just a roman candle, you can wear your sandals

A G#m F#m G#m

and I'll pour you just one cup of tea

A G#m

Then you can go and rest

F#m G#m

you haven't seen my best, so...

E G#m C#m G#m

Just spend an evening with me

E G#m C#m G#m

Just a lazy evening, then you could be leaving

A G#m F#m G#m

or we could stay and talk until three

A G#m F#m G#m

I will think it's magic and I'll hope you'll agree, so...

Just a perfect apple

A G#m F#m G#m A

If we were honest and both wrote a sonnet together

G#m F#m G#m

a sandwich with everything on it,

E G#m C#m G#m

at least we would know that the sparks didn't glow

E G#m C#m

but we owe it to ourselves to try,

G#m A

so we aim and ignite!

G#m F#m G#m

So often I call and I plead with you:

A G#m

"Give me a chance!"

F#m G#m E

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

A G#m F#m G#m

Oh, I know, it goes on, it gets old

But for now we're young, we smell good, we're alone, so alive

E G#m C#m G#m

A G#m

You look for a legend,

F#m G#m

I'm looking for common ground

A G#m

Your heart isn't breaking,

F#m G#m

and mine isn't making a sound
