Let's stay in tonight and have some quiet time
Sit by the fireside and watch it rise
The flames already warmin' up the cold night air
And it's dancin' there in your eyes

And oh, it's a place of love
And oh, that is plenty good enough for me

Light up the fireplace
Let's slow down the human race
I'll sing you a song I wrote today
Candle scent fills the night
You look so good in firelight
You are my home, my hiding place
And you grace the room like flowers in a vase

I'll get my guitar, you get your evening tea
Come and relax with me, the day is done
We may not have the nicest house I've ever seen
But it's got everything I could want

And oh, you're the centerpiece
Oh, you're the heartbeat of the house to me

Light up the fireplace
Let's slow down the human race
I'll sing you a song I wrote today
Candle scent fills the night
You look so good in firelight
You are my home, my hiding place
And you grace the room like flowers in a vase
Without you my world is an empty space
You're what brings life into this place

So light up the fireplace
Let's slow down the human race
I'll sing you a song I wrote today
Candle scent fills the night
You look so good in firelight
You are my home, my hiding place
And you grace the room like flowers in a vase
