The walls flicker and glow
from a candle that you already know.

You’ve already seen it, its inside and out;
you got past its fears and conquered its doubts.

You’ve already held it, so close and so tightly,
and you’re the only one who could make it burn so brightly.

But baby, can’t you see?
My heart is the only thing that this candle could be...
and you light it up without the slightest effort,
so won’t you spend tonight with me?
