Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When the sun comes and meets your eyes
I can't stop looking, my, my, my
You are like a feather in the wind
[Verse 2]
When I look at you, I might
Think of Paris on a summer night
Baby, we're going for a ride
[Chorus]
And don't you think that, baby
This is a candle we should light?
Pretend like we were maybe
Lovers for a night
[Verse 3]
Where the water meets the sky
There we lie, you and I, I, I
Me in your arms, feels so right
[Verse 4]
When I look at you, I see
A little boy with beautiful dreams
I'll sing you a lullaby, my love
[Chorus]
And don't you think that, baby
This is a candle we should light?
We should light
Pretend like we were maybe
Lovers for a night
[Bridge]
Hold my hand
Feel my love
Cherish today like a released dove
Hold my heart
Heal my pain
Cherish this moment before we wake
[Chorus]
Don't you think that, baby
This is a candle we should light?
We should light
Pretend like we were maybe
Lovers for a night
