CANDLELIGHT AND WINE

Well I meant to call you just before I left to go away
But I guess that's what I'd say by now
Then again I'm ever sure when is the proper time
Of day since we never get together anyhow.

Chorus:
It was really nice to watch the candle through the glass of wine
Dreaming dreams together when the quiet night was yours and mine
Just a pair of fools wrapped up in soft light stencilled from the fire
Till the morning light will whisper in the sky

I keep thinking that you saw me in the park the other day
When I have the time I go to where we met
When I am on the road I see you in the crowd
Or by the way, its going to take some time before I can forget

Chorus

There's a party for some friends we both know
When I'm back in the town, you think you
Could get there for a while
We were never meant to happen, still it doesn't mean to say
We can share a glass and look back with a smile

Chorus

(Recorded by Fiddler's Green)

It is a nice song. I used to sing it quite a lot(though it hasn't had an airing in awhile). I learned it from a printing in Come for to Sing, a Chicago-based folk music magazine (late and much lamented), many years ago. I'll look up the lyrics and copyright citations when I get home from work tonight, and will post them here tomorrow. Kathy

I first heard this song when on holiday in Clifden Connemara. Does anyone know who wrote it?
