[Verse 1]
Don't look for me, though I'll be around
Watchin' and waitin' on the outskirts of town
I see your window from my view on the hill
So send me a signal that our love is real

[Chorus]
Baby, light just one candle, if our love is true
If it must stay a secret, then darlin', light two
He'll never know, he'll never see
The flame that has kindled between you and me

[Verse 2]
I saw you on Sunday, as you two walked by
I saw his head turn, as I caught your eye
You can keep a good secret, but you can't keep your vows
So I'm watchin' and waitin', and hopin' somehow

[Chorus]
Baby, light just one candle, if our love is true
If it must stay a secret, then darlin', light two
He'll nеver know, he'll nevеr see
The flame that has kindled between you and me

[Verse 3]
I see your window with the curtains pulled low
You made your decision, I guess I should've known
That he raised his hand, and you changed your mind
So you'll live in his prison, and I'll live in mine
[Chorus]
Baby, light just one candle, if our love is true
If it must stay a secret, then darlin', light two
He'll never know, he'll never see
The flame that has kindled between you and me

[Outro]
No, he'll never know, and he'll never see
The flame that has kindled between you and me
