In my last years with him, there were bruises on my face
In my dawn and new day I finally got away
But my head’s all messed up and knows just what to say
No more dawn and new days
I’m going back to stay
Why say bye-bye when it only makes me cry
I still light up like a candle burning when he calls me up
I still melt down like a candle burning every time we touch
Oh say what you will, he does me wrong and I should be gone
I still be loving you baby and it’s much too much

We are going down ’cause you’re always getting high
And your crumbs of loving no longer get me by
Wow, it gets better every time that we get high
Then your crumbs of loving they somehow get me by
Why say bye-bye when it only makes me cry
I still light up like a candle burning when he calls me up
I still melt down like a candle burning every time we touch
Oh say what you will he does me wrong and I should be gone
I still be loving you baby and it’s much too much

Can’t I go my severed way?
Some rain for my sunny day
Not even one reason to stay
Why? I should’ve left you
Why? I can’t forget you baby
Why? Ever since I met you it’s
Why?

I still light up like a candle burning when he calls me up
I still melt down like a candle burning every time we touch
Oh say what you will he does me wrong and I should be gone
I still be loving you baby and it’s much too much
