Roman Candle

[Verse 1: Peter Liddle]
There were eyes on us
Parents advising us
Oh, we pretended
Not to hear
Take your time on us
Ripen the vine of us, oh
But you whisper
In my ear

[Pre-Chorus: Peter Liddle]
In the sea of love there ain't no tides
In the clutching fist of time
We'll survive

[Chorus 1: Peter Liddle]
My light never burned that bright
But I know a sign when I see it
Now you know

[Verse 2: Emma Pollock]
If the will in me
Blinks like a ship at sea
It doesn't mean I'm uncertain
Just afraid
You like the sound of love
Of drinking the dragon's blood
Oh, but you might not
Like the taste

[Pre-Chorus: Peter Liddle & Emma Pollock]
In the sea of love there ain't no tides
In the clutching fist of time
We'll survive

[Chorus 2: Peter Liddle & Emma Pollock]
My light never burned that bright
But I know a sign when I see you
It darkens my door when I need you
Now you know

[Pre-Chorus: Peter Liddle & Emma Pollock]
In a sea of love that sees no tides
Where the clutching fist of time is a vice

[Chorus 2: Peter Liddle & Emma Pollock]
My light never burned that bright
But I know a sign when I see it
It darkens my door when I need you
Now you know
