Candles (original song - produced by Gordon Bennison)

http://itunes.apple.com/album/candles-single/id500411174

I really love this one - possibly my favourite (so far). Running out of compliments for my producer (and the rest), Gordon. I am rather worried someone more talented than me, who has money, is going to poach him!! Took me bloody ages to do the video - I'm really all about the music, but I like to at least make an effort. Would be great if you could forward this to friends - I think it's worthy :-) Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a New Year that brings everything you wish for.

Early morning
Raindrops dancing at my window
I keep stallin
But time is not my own

So I sit up
Let the room get tired of spinning
Take a deep breath
Air is colder than stone

Eyes are heavy
But I find the strength to lift them
Then I see her
And I start to scratch my head

Cause there's an angel
Lying peacefully beside me
And I'm wondering
What she's doing in my bed

But then she opens her eyes
And I fall in love again
Troubles head for the skies
All my worries at an end

Wish on each and every star in motion
Pickin through the clover with devotion
Chasing on a black cat chasing rainbows
Blow out all the candles see how that goes

Am I dreaming
Well it wouldn't be the first time
But it's different
Because I look just like myself

So I kiss her
And the room fills up with smiling
I will never
Want to be anybody else

Then she's talking
But I don't get a word she's saying
Sweet music
Is the only thing I hear

Well there's no man
Who deserves to be this lucky
But I'll take it
Cause it might all just disappear

Then she touches my face
And I see the world become
Such a beautiful place
Where two can be as one

Wish on each and every star in motion
Pickin through the clover with devotion
Chasing on a black cat chasing rainbows
Blow out all the candles see how that goes

Wish on each and every star in motion
Pickin through the clover with devotion
Chasing on a black cat chasing rainbows
Blow out all the candles see how that goes
