Set a table for two
In a one bedroom apartment
A two and an eight
Light a Walmart cake with a card and
You're singing to me
It's a little off key
But it's coming from your heart and
You turn the lights down
And wait for me to blow 'em out
Baby, we can leave the candles lit
Yeah this year, I'll just save my breath
Cuz all I want is this
So I don't need to make a wish
Baby, we can leave the candles lit
For so many years
Yeah, this right here's all I wanted
I was closing my eyes
And hoping I'd find "The One," yeah
Always getting older, but never closer
To knowing what "true love" meant
But putting out old flames
It wasn't all in vain
Cuz, Baby, we can leave the candles lit
Yeah this year, I'll just save my breath
Cuz all I want is this
So I don't need to make a wish
Baby, we can leave the candles lit
Ooh
Every year till now
I've been wishing for you
So, Baby, we can leave the candles lit
Yeah this year, I'll just save my breath
Cuz all I want is this
And I don't need to make a wish
Baby, we can leave the candles lit
Baby, we can leave the candles lit
Baby, we can leave the candles... lit
