While the candle still burns

I can hear your car
as you leave driving in circles.
Reluctant to park
until you're ready and stable.

So walk with me into the fire. C'mon follow me
Close behind and we'll go where they won't know
Our seconds and sorrows.
We should leave while we can and be gone by tomorrow
Can't you see how the second hand turns
We should go while the candle still burns.

You hesitate to start
you just stand there with your hands bare
and wonder who you are
and you take too much to heart
so you build another thrill
'til this one falls apart

So walk with me into the fire. C'mon follow me
Close behind and we'll go where they won't know
Our seconds and sorrows.
We should leave while we can and be gone by tomorrow
Can't you see how the second hand turns
We should go while the candle still burns.

Have you ever
let another put out your flame
and have you ever said I'm a fool to stay in the same place
So we'll go where they won't know
Our secrets and sorrows
We should leave while we can and be gone by tomorrow
Can't you see how the second hand turns
and we'll go where they won't know our secrets and sorrows
we should leave while we can and be gone by tomorrow
Can't you see how the second hand turns

We should go while the candle still burns
We should go while the candle still burns
