Candle shy, candle weep
Fly, hot candle, leap
Candle roll and fold in ball
Candle large, candle small
Your threads of fire burning up,
Your feathers of fire winning night
And turning light, and turning light
Light deepest night for me, and steer for me
Spin and spin
Then and then
When I'm dancing with my love the shadows flicker up above
Up above the shadows do the Candle Mambo
Candle roll and fold in ball
Candle blur, candle whir
Candle her, candle her
While your lights are spinning round,
Your feathers of fire winning night
And turning light, and turning light
Candle crack, candle break
Correct the night's mistake
When I'm dancing with my love
The shadows flicker up above
Up above, the shadows do the Candle Mambo
