Lyrics Black Lab - Candlelight

you never got high, did you? I never knew if you wanted to. I used to watch you walk across the alley and down you block. and I heard you cry at night watched you set yourself on fire. a ghost among the trees you haunted me at my back door. you found what you were looking for was gone but your candlelight burns on. when everything’s gone wrong and it’s crashing down around you something that reminds you. your candlelight burns on. when the afterglow is gone. when you’re standing on the outside it’s burning on the inside. have you ever been stoned like this. have you ever felt so alive as this. will you make love to me. better than it used to be cause I remember your mama’s front porch. holding your body like a torch I could feel you breathe. I wanted you to rescue me but do you know you’ll never be alone cause your candlelight burns on. when the afterglow is gone and there’s no one left. to sing to someone who reminds you your candlelight burns on. when everything’s gone wrong and there’s no more happy endings. you’re happy just pretending your candlelight burns on.
