A candle illuminates the room
And I see you in the light
And I barely see myself in the mirror
But you look just right
Like the moon watches the sun and wishes she could be more than just lukewarm
But separate they stay to keep the tides at bay; mourning, you rise as she falls
Radiant, you hold my hand
And expose me to your shine
And I wince because you'll see me naked
But you just like to see me lit right
The dusty corners of my walls you fill with your life, like vines on the ivy we planted together
And I'll never let die
Every night when I watch the stars
I look for a glimmer of you
And I pour out the candle so I can make wings
The couch sits dormant which was made for two
Because the world isn't shit without the warmth of your place
And I'd rather get burnt than stay cold anyway
And I wish you were next to me filling my space
You make me pretty and you make that okay
You make me happy and you make that okay
