Lyrics
He watched the shadows on the walls of his room And the silence will speak too soon And he held her tightly So tight he could tell He knew the feeling so well He said "Pretty baby will you marry me?" She said "You'd look sh*t upon my family tree" And that's when he realised he'd have to start again And just when you think you've got it figured out They light seven candles and you're blowing them out You know that you're going to have to light them all again You see her turning night into day And the broken television display And I know you're hurting But tonight I can pray 'Cause you've got to think for yourself Lie down everyone Close your eyes and look for the sun Even they don't know where it's gone Reminiscing of days when you knew that you belong He said "Pretty baby will you marry me?" She said "You'd look sh*t upon my family tree" And that's when he realised he'd have to start again And just when you think you've got it figured out They light seven candles and you're blowing them out You know that you're going to have to light them all again
