Lyrics
More Time With You
D G - A
Last week I lit a candle
for our first kiss that night.
It’s flame was proud and tall,
G A - D - A
so warm and bright.
G D
Now I’m buying more candles
G D - A
and more matches, too.
G D
I’m clearing off my calendar
A D A
to spend more time with you.
You must have seen that candle
reflected in my eyes.
‘Cause you grabbed me and kissed me
much to my surprise.
Now I’m running out of candles.
But I don’t count anymore.
I just wait for that knocking
that means you’re at my door.
Now we sit in a dark room.
Each candle lit adds its light.
Like the breaking of morning
our new love turns so bright.
Now we’re buying more candles
and more matches, too.
We’re clearing off our calendars.
I want more time with you.
