Harris Emmylou - Burn That Candle lyrics

rate me

(Winfield Scott)

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

chorus:

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

chorus

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

chorus (x2)
