Candlelight

Relient K · Forget & Not Slow Down [2009]

To know her is to love her

I'm going undercover

To catch a glimpse but not get caught

But to see her could be worse

If I don't get my head straight first

On second thought I guess I'll not



She's almost brighter than the sun

Seems to me to be unfair

When you consider everyone

Who pales when they compare



Can't hold a candle to her

Cause all the moths get in the way

And they'll begin to chew her

Entire attire until it frays

For she outshines anyone whoever might

Dare to bask in the same candlelight



Oh please don't seat us in the back

With all the insects and the trash

She is a lady I'm the tramp

Collecting stares from pairs close by

Then flutters in a butterfly

Ew just a moth drawn to the lamp



She's like an ancient artifact

Something you're lucky to have found

She'll pinch the nerves in all the necks

When she turns those heads around
