Intro : ~ ~
Every night we light the candle
That stands beside our bed
~ ~
And sometimes the flame's too much to handle
That's w ~ hat you said, that's what you said
And you should know
Because you built a fire in me and you made it burn
You followed me, watching every move
G ~ ~ ~
Matching every turn
Your green eyes they don't miss a thing
They hold me like the sun going down
Warm me like a fire in the night
Without a sound
And you were waiting 'till I heard
Just as patient as that love-light in your eyes
~ ~
You never threw a way a word
Or e ~ ver talked in a dis guise
I ought to know
You were a beacon to a sailor lost at sea
I saw it in your eyes when you looked at me
G ~ ~ ~
So openly
Your green eyes they don't miss a thing
They hold me like the sun going down
Warm me like a fire in the night
Without a sound
Instrumental : ~ ~ ~
The first time I ever saw your laughter
Break loose inside and tumble out to me
~ ~
My heart knew it had found what it was after
And i ~ t came so easi ly
We should know
After all the years of the hard and heavy times
Now our days go by like best friends' story lines
G ~ ~ ~
Yours and mine
Your green eyes they don't miss a thing
They hold me like the sun going down
Warm me like a fire in the night
Without a sound, hmm hmm hmm
