Burn That Candle

Keep that candle burnin' bright, mother

I'll be kinda late tonight, mother

There's a yellow moon above, mother

Shinin' on the one I love, mother

Burn that candle, night and day

Burn that candle, light our way

Keep that doorway open wide

Until we come slowly strollin' side by side

While that candle's burnin' high, mother

I'll be with my sugar pie, mother

We'll be comin' home you know, mother

Lookin' for that candle glow, mother

Burn that candle, night and day

Burn that candle, light our way

Keep that doorway open wide

Until we come slowly strollin' side by side

After we have had the wedding, mother

To that candle we'll be heading, mother

So before we're winin', dinin', mother

Start that candle, light a shinin', mother

Burn that candle, night and day

Burn that candle, light our way

Keep that doorway open wide

Until we come slowly strollin' side by side

Until we come slowly strollin' side by side

'Til I'm strollin' through that doorway with my bride
