Текст песни
Like a drop of wax from a candle burning low
I will slide and freeze upon the table cloth
Just a faded stain that no one’s gonna know
A monument to tears and broken troth
The solid night like a wall of glass and mirrors
Won't hide your face, won't wash away my fears
And all that wasn't mine... now feels so close
You're like a candle flame, the one I chose
The morning light will rush in once again
Capturing my soul with gentle, quiet pain
What have I done to deserve this kind of fire
That you still love me with such wild desire
You’re stepping from the bath in a gentle, hazy light
Across the silk, you’re opening your legs tonight
You’re ready for the dance, a pas de deux so deep
Like paying taxes that the life must keep
The candle's warmth and the cigar smoke in the air
Into the ceiling’s square they fade without a care
Today I’m just a little old, I must admit
I take my tuxedo off... my robe is all I have
