Candlelighter Man - Fanny

I lie awake and wait for him to arrive;

candle lighter man

He is the one who keeps my heart alive;

he is the candle lighter man

Woman in the city with a man to call my own

I’m never gonna leave home;

I’m never gonna leave home

I’m feelin' happy nearly every night;

he’s the candle lighter man

I’m feelin' good, now I’m feelin' right;

he is the candle lighter man

Woman in the city with a man to call my own

I’m never gonna leave home;

I’m never gonna leave home

When he is away I just burn the candle through the day

Read the funnies and make the bed, light a number

And there is one thing that you oughta' know;

he is the candle lighter man

Just keep on loving and your light will grow;

he is the candle lighter man

And he is oh, so voh-dee-oh-doh never leads my heart about

When he says ohhhhh, blow the candles out

Woman, I’m a woman… in the city with a man to call my own

I’m never gonna leave home;

I’m never gonna leave home

I’m never gonna leave home;

I’m never gonna leave home
