Burning Candles - Moses & The Rockin' Juice

BURNING CANDLES
(А. РУДИЧЕВ)

I’ve got a lot of thoughts but no reason
I’ve got a guitar but no strings
I’ve got a lot to say but my mouth is shut
All the words wouldn’t mean a thing

I’ve got a suite that’s built for comfort
A fast car and an open road
I’ve got a life to live but I live with the past
No baggage but a heavy load

      CHORUS
      And I wanna fall in love but I don’t wanna fall
      I guess it might just get too intense
      And I don’t wanna make the same mistakes again
      But I keep burning candles at both ends

I’ve got easy ways and good looks
But no one can see through my mask
And I’ve got a lot of things to answer for
If someone would just bother to ask

      CHORUS
      And I should stop pretending, chasing shadows in the night
      I guess it doesn’t make any sense
      And I don’t wanna make the same mistakes again
      But I keep burning candles at both ends

      And I’m gonna start anew, gonna wipe the slate clean
      Put it down to experience
      And I don’t wanna make the same mistakes again
      But I keep burning candles at both ends
