You and the Candles Lyrics

YOU AND THE CANDLES - Hawksley Workman

This song has a feel to it which can be nicely played with the root and then two
full chords following it.
Each written chord represents duration
when societies crumble and everything's gone
when the cars are all rusted away
there ain't no more money and there is nothing to buy
and all that we have is the day
when the world becomes silent no planes in the air
and the voices just gather to sing
the guns are the fence post the cars are the dog house
and the telephones no longer ring
but what, what of the night
with no electrical light
so what then
you, you and the candles will be all that I need
your face bathed in the fire light will be all i want to see
and I'll still write you a song
that will last the whole night long
you, you and the candles
the grocery stores are hollow inside the airports all filled with the breeze
after the anarchy finally subsides
will you reckon with how it will be
when empires are humble before the eyes of the people
and the truth will be like a parade
when industries fallen we'll make our own clothes now and gifts of our hands rise again
in a waste paper basket the timing is fantastic
for lovers to mean what they say
and a night lit in candles on stain wooden mantels
keep us safe till the night turns to day
you, you and the storm clouds and the puddles at our feet
the lightning cuts through the heavens and light you so briefly
and i'll still write you a song
that will last the whole night long
you, you and the candles
you, you and the candles
