Fireplaces and brandy
Oh what a scene
Fireplaces and brandy
Oh what a memory
I asked you to sit by the fire with me
And drink some hard brandy or spiced China tea
And you tried to think of some songs we could sing
Oh what a beautiful thing
But the fire that should have made you love me more
Was just an old candle I set on the floor
The brandy turned out to be coke on the rocks
Oh what a beautiful thought
Fireplaces and brandy
Oh what a scene
Fireplaces and brandy
Oh what a memory
And now and then
When the weather turns bad
If I'm not too careful I start feeling sad
Wishing there could have been more time for us
Oh what a beautiful love
But we lived a lifetime
That one sweet night
There making love in the soft candlelight
Love can be measured in hours
Not days
Oh what a beautiful way
Fireplaces and brandy
Oh what a scene
Fireplaces and brandy
Oh what a memory
Oh what a memory
Oh what a memory
