Candlelight

To know her is to love her I'm goin' undercover To catch a glimpse but not get caught But to see her, could be worse If I don't get my head straight first On second thought I guess I'll not She's almost brighter than the sun Seems to me to be unfair When you consider everyone Who pales when they compare When they compare Can't hold a candle to her 'Cause all the moths get in the way And they'll begin to chew her Entire attire until it frays She outshines anyone Whoever might dare to bask in The same candlelight Oh please, don't seat us in the back With all the insects and the trash She is a lady, I'm the tramp Collecting stares from pairs close by Then flutters in the butterfly You just a moth drawn to the lamp She's like an ancient artifact Something you're lucky to have found She'll pinch the nerves in all the necks When she turns those heads around Those heads around Can't hold a candle to her 'Cause all the moths get in the way And they'll begin to chew her Entire attire until it frays She outshines anyone Whoever might dare to bask in The same candlelight Who may dare to bask in The same candlelight? She's almost brighter than the sun Seems to me to be unfair When you consider everyone Who pales when they compare When they compare Can't hold a candle to her 'Cause all the moths get in the way And they'll begin to chew her Entire attire until it frays She outshines anyone Whoever might dare to bask in The same candlelight In the same candlelight
