a candle's fire

light a candle's fire

carries a good name

what would you ask a campfire

that scares me just the same

and knew you had it all along

an endless need for games

don't forget a candle's fire

is only just a flame

i

it's certain from afar

failed to pull my weight

but you and i traveled through the fog

to arrive at our front gate

at night we rest beside the fire

and smile upon your face

just don't forget a candle's fire

is only just a flame

if i had known

that to carry on that way

it wouldn't show

in the creases on your face

if you should go

but you carry on my name

just let it blow

in the fog of bishop's lane.
