I guess your off to have your fun
another ending just begun
and I know what I don't see
really shouldn't bother me
so go and have yourself a ball
you'll be at noone's beck and call
and with that fire in your eyes
another lovers moon will rise
someone else will take the fall
and that's just the way you are
i've known all along
some candles always burn
even when the night is gone
but the strongest of flames
won't burn eternally
when you find another friend
who lights your candle up again
you can burn one down for me
So you don't matter anymore
I'll convince myself I'm sure
as if I give a da *n
that's just the way I am
So go on and pour yourself some wine
with who'll ever spend your time
'cause anyone can see
you won't be cryin' over me
and you never were that kind
REPEAT CHORUS
when you find another friend
who'll light your candle up again
you can burn one down for me
