"Counting Candles" lyrics

"Counting Candles"

Kisses in heaven
French cigarette clouds
Lucky in 7s
Wont ever touch down
Dirty roadside motel
Scary doll on the top shelf
With another man it would be hell

Kisses on bourbon
The bricks painted pink
Boys chasing girls
Who just started to drink
Say you gotta make a pit stop
Weeks pay for a quick job

Star dust on a midnight train
Caught you red handed, and they took you away
Never mind
Oh daddy, I need you to behave
I'll write you dirty stories and the guards will be paid
Just wait until your birthday there's a key in the cake
And I'll keep counting candles however long it takes
I'll wait
Yes, I'll wait

Kisses in colour
Our hearts in a frame
Sleep through the weathers, survive
Like a stain
On the lace of my night gown
I gotta hope it won't be long now
Say I'll meet you at the court house

Star dust on a midnight train
Caught you red handed, and they took you away
Never mind
Oh daddy, I need you to behave
I'll write you dirty stories and the guards will be paid
Just wait until your birthday there's a key in the cake
And I'll keep counting candles however long it takes
I'll wait
Yes, I'll wait

The flame is burning stronger only I know
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
I will

The flowers that you left me haven't dried out
I'll wait for you
I'll wait for you
I will
