Candles and Cut Flowers

She likes candles and cut flowers, rearranging
them for hours
And as she's lost in thought, I see the girl she
was
I watch her standing in the kitchen,
Snipping stems off with her scissors
And humming out a love song, like she always does
Then the flowers go in vases that appear in all
the places
That gives the world around her, a little woman's
touch
And she's the kind of woman, every woman wants to
be like
And every man like me can't live without
Next she changes out the candles that have melted
on the mantles
From the party that she hosted, just some nights
ago
Then the round one on the piano, its unusual for
the deep glow
That emanates inside it, when the wick is low
And the tall ones by the window, that she likes
because the soft glow
Gives the room a feeling that she's not alone
And when she's not around you, you feel like
something's missing
But the candles and the flowers say she's there
She likes dinners with old friends, late-night
calls that come from girlfriends
She'll listen and tell them, if they're wrong or
right
Later on she'll draw a hot bath, light a candle,
play some soft jazz
Melt down in the bubbles, and the candlelight
Before bed she likes some white wine, says it
helps her mind to unwind
As she reads a little while and drifts off in the
night
And as she lies there sleeping, I can't believe
she loves me
But when she says she loves you, you feel loved
She likes candles and cut flowers, rearranging
them for hours
And as she's lost in thought, I see the girl she
was
them for hours
And as she's lost in thought, I see the girl she
was
I watch her standing in the kitchen,
Snipping stems off with her scissors
And humming out a love song, like she always does
Then the flowers go in vases that appear in all
the places
That gives the world around her, a little woman's
touch
And she's the kind of woman, every woman wants to
be like
And every man like me can't live without
Next she changes out the candles that have melted
