E5            Ab5           C#5        Ab5
Light a roman candle with me
E5            Ab5       C#5            Ab5
Just a roman candle, you can wear your sandals
    A5                  Ab5          F#5 Ab5
and I'll pour you just one cup of tea.
     A5              Ab5
Then you can go and rest
    F#5              Ab5
you haven't seen my best, so...


E5             Ab5         C#5         Ab5
Just spend an evening with me
E5            Ab5     C#5              Ab5
Just a lazy evening, then you could be leaving
   A5                Ab5               F#5    Ab5
or we could stay and talk until three.
A5                 Ab5            F#5         Ab5
I will think it's magic and I'll hope you'll agree, so...



E5            Ab5           C#5        Ab5
Light a roman candle with me
E5            Ab5
Just a roman candle
C#5            Ab5    E5
Just a perfect apple

Light a roman candle with me
E5            Ab5
Just a roman candle
C#5            Ab5   E5 * F#5 * Ab5 *
Just a perfect apple
A5          Ab5        F#5          Ab5       A5
If we were honest and both wrote a sonnet together
    Ab5         F#5         Ab5
a sandwich with everything on it,
   E5             Ab5           C#5            Ab5
at least we would know that the sparks didn't glow
       E5          Ab5         C#5
but we owe it to ourselves to try,
      Ab5         A5
so we aim and ignite!
   Ab5     F#5        Ab5
So often I call and I plead with you:
     A5     Ab5
"Give me a chance!"
         F#5        Ab5          E5
It's not often that I understand
    Ab5         C#5            Ab5                    E5
the ins and the outs of what's wrong and what's right
         Ab5        C#5       Ab5  E5 * F#5 * Ab5 *
So don't think of tomorrow tonight.


A5     Ab5           F#5          Ab5
Oh, I know, it goes on, it gets old
        A5         Ab5             F#5          Ab5
But for now we're young, we smell good, we're alone, so alive

     A5         Ab5
You look for a legend,
    F#5          Ab5
I'm looking for common ground.
     A5             Ab5
Your heart isn't breaking,
    F#5        Ab5
and mine isn't making a sound.

E5 * F#5 * Ab5 *

A5    Ab5           F#5         Ab5
Oh I know, it goes on, it gets old
A5    Ab5           F#5         Ab5
Oh I know, it goes on, it gets old



E5            Ab5           C#5        Ab5
Light a roman candle with me
