The Candle Dancer - Bertie Higgins

I remember well your flashing eyes

Soft and green as key lime pie

And how they filled with love when you looked at me

And the shadows upon the wall at night

As you danced for me by the candle light

If only once more I could see

My candledancer — ooh my young island girl

Your love was the answer — it lit up my world

Though the candle light is gone

The fire still lingers on

Give me one more chance — dance!

Ooh, the déjà-vu of days with you

The sun so bright, the sea so blue

Somehow I thought it could ever end

But here I am alone tonight

Staring into the candle light

Trying so hard to pretend

I see my candledancer — ooh my young island girl

Your love was the answer — it lit up my world

Though the candle light is gone

The fire still lingers on

Give me one more chance — dance!

My candledancer — ooh my young island girl

Your love was the answer — it lit up my world

Though the candle light is gone

The fire still lingers on

Give me one more chance — dance!
