Beirut - A Candle's Fire текст песни

Oh light a candle's fire
Carries a good name
What would you ask a campfire
That scares me just the same

And you, you had it all along
An endless need for games
Just 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 were light, you traveled through the fog,
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
But you carry on my name
Just let it blow
In the fog on Bishop's lane
