I had a roman candle with me, just a roman candle You can wear your sandals and I'll pour you just one cup of tea Then you can go and rest, you haven't seen my best, so Just spend an evening with me Just a lazy evening that you could be leaving Or we could stay and talk until three I think it's magic and I hope you'll agree So I had a roman candle with me, just a roman candle You're just the perfect apple of my eye I had a roman candle with me, just a roman candle You're just the perfect apple If we were honest and both wrote a sonnet To gather a sandwich with everything on it At least you would know that the sparks didn't glow But we owe it to ourselves to try so we aim and ignite So I'll feed, I'll call and I'll plead with you Give me a chance, it's not up in it, I understand The ins and the outs of what's wrong and what's right Don't think of tomorrow tonight Oh, I know it goes on, it gets old But for now, we're young, we smell good, we're alone, so alive You look for a legend, I'm looking for common ground Your heart isn't breaking and mine isn't making a sound Oh, I know it goes on, it gets old So I had a roman candle with me, just a roman candle You're just the perfect apple Cool
