John Tams Who Will Blow The Candle Out Tonight
morning steals the sunlight peels my eyes
half a promise sweetened by some lies
a night ago you whispered
everything will be alright
who will blow the candle out tonight?
who will blow the candle out tonight?
I must be getting easier to leave
knew that this was too good to believe
if you ever change your mind
I’ll never let you from my sight
who will blow the candle out tonight?
who will blow the candle out tonight?
it takes a fool to realize too late
time and tide they very seldom wait
you can’t hold back the morning
or hide away the light
who will blow the candle out tonight?
who will blow the candle out tonight?
it takes a while to settle to the task
pour another brandy from the flask
so here’s to absent lovers
who venture from the light
who will blow the candle out tonight?
who will blow the candle out tonight?
