I am the moth and you my candle
The lonely darkness I can't handle
And so I race towards the flame
To win your heart I'll play the game
A little time and then we'll see
If you and I were meant to be
I'd find in you a friend and lover
With whom my soul might take some cover
I need a hint to solve your riddle
Just play the tune I'll be your fiddle
And through the cold and lonesome night
We could give each other light
I long to feel your warm embrace
And see the smile on your face
I know not if I'm fox or hound
As we chase each other round
This song a symbol of my love
An olive branch borne by a dove
And for my mind to know some peace
My great affection must release
I am the moth and you my candle
The lonely darkness I can't handle
And so I race towards the flame
To win your heart I'll play the game
