A Candle's Fire Lyrics - The Rip Tide - Beirut

Oh, light a candle's fire, it carries our good name 

What would you ask a campfire? 

It scares me just the same 

And you, you've had it all along 

An endless need for games 

Just don't forget, a candle's fire is only just a flame 

I hit certain from afar, failed to pull my weight 

But you were light, we traveled through the fall 

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 on your face 

If you should go, would you carry on my name? 

Just let it blow, in the fog on Bishop's lane
