burn that candle

keep that candle burnin' bright

mama

i'll be kind of late tonight

mama

there's a yellow moon above me

mama

shinin' on the one i love

mama

burn that candle

night and day

burn that candle

honey light our way

keep that doorway open wide

until we come slowly strollin' side by side

while that candle's shinin' high

mama

i'll be with my sugar pie

mama

we'll be comin' home you know and mama

lookin' for that candle glowin'

mama

after we have had the wedding

mama

to that candle we'll be headin'

mama

so before we're winin' and dinin'

mama

keep that candle light a-shinin'

mama
