Candlelight

She was looking really pretty in the middle of the city when he said goodbye Said goodbye He said he'd really miss her as he leaned over to kiss her That was a lie, he couldn't deny, that was a lie He only knew her face by candlelight Her voice was a whisper in the night When she wanted him to put up a fight He said goodbye He only knew her face by candlelight There was so much to talk about, yet nothing left to say So he slowly stood, and took her hand She hid her eyes, didn't want to look surprised Could it be, he didn't realize He only knew her face by candlelight Her voice was a whisper in the night When she wanted him to put up a fight He said goodbye He only knew her face by candlelight When he walked away, she thought about the day they met The day they met It was Christmas time and the stores were all decked The day they met She thought it was too good to be true A fairytale written for two And now that he's gone, she knows she was right He only knew her face by candlelight Her voice was a whisper in the night When she wanted him to put up a fight He said goodbye He only knew her face by candlelight He only knew her face by candlelight Her voice was a whisper in the night When she wanted him to put up a fight He said goodbye He only knew her face by candlelight
