Kitchen Candle Lyrics

Why'd you leave the car on in the driveway

Ain't we supposed to get out and head in

Or do we need to keep this engine running

To keep one of us from running far again

Why'd you look away for that split second

Can't you keep connection with my eyes

Or is the hurt too much it leaves you wanting

To hope for something better down the line

Why'd you light that kitchen candle, baby

Couldn't we just go talk about it in our room

Or do we need a table now in between us

To symbol what you feel between us two

Oh, why the kitchen candle, baby

It always lights more than just the room

Another one I mishandled, baby

So go ahead, light me up like you always do

Why'd you give me grace the first time, baby

To judge me is more familiar than the gray

Or is that what you wish I'd give back to you

Instead of turn my head and walk the other way

Oh, why the kitchen candle, baby

It always lights more than just the room

Another one I mishandled, baby

So go ahead, light me up like you always do

The fire's out on that kitchen candle, baby

The room is dark but my eyes they can see

You light my heart like a kitchen candle, baby

Always bringing light to the shadow parts of me

Always bringing light to the shadow parts of me
