Burn That Candle lyrics

Keep that candle burning bright, mother
I'll be kinda late tonight, mother
There's a yellow moon above, mother
Shining on the one I love, mother

[CHORUS]
Burn that candle, night and day
Burn that candle, light our way
Keep that doorway open wide
Until we come slowly
Strolling side by side
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/bill_haley_his_comets/burn_that_candle.html ]
While that candle's burning high, mother
I'll be with my sugar pie, mother
We'll be coming home you know, mother
Looking for that candle glow, mother

[Repeat CHORUS]

After we have had the wedding, mother
To that candle we'll be heading, mother
So, before we're wining, dining, mother
Start that candle light a shining, mother

[Repeat CHORUS]

Until we come slowly
Strolling side by side
Till I'm strolling through
That doorway with my bride
