Light My Candle

Lyrics

[ROGER] What'd you forget? [MIMI] Got a light? [ROGER] I know you, you're... you're shivering [MIMI] It's nothing, they turned off my heat And I'm just a little weak on my feet Would you light my candle? What are you staring at? [ROGER] Nothing, your hair in the moonlight You look familiar Can you make it? [MIMI] Just haven't eaten much today At least the room stopped spinning, anyway What? [ROGER] Nothing, your smile reminded me of [MIMI] I always remind people of... Who is she? [ROGER] She died, her name was April [MIMI] It's out again Sorry 'bout your friend Would you light my candle? [ROGER] Well... [MIMI] Yeah? Ow! [ROGER] Oh, the wax, it's... [MIMI] Dripping I like it between my... [ROGER] Fingers, I figured Oh, well, goodnight [ROGER] It blew out again? [MIMI] No, I think that I dropped my stash [ROGER] I know I've seen you out and about When I used to go out Your candle's out [MIMI] I'm illin', I had it when I walked in the door It was pure Is it on the floor? [ROGER] The floor? [MIMI] They say that I have the best ass Below 14th Street, is it true? [ROGER] What? [MIMI] You're staring again [ROGER] Oh no, I mean, you do have a nice... I mean, you look familiar [MIMI] Like your dead girlfriend [ROGER] Only when you smile But I'm sure I've seen you somewhere else [MIMI] Do you go to the Cat Scratch Club? That's where I work, I dance Help me look! [ROGER] Yes, they used to tie you up [MIMI] It's a living [ROGER] I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs [MIMI] We could light the candle Oh, won't you light the candle? [ROGER] Why don't you forget that stuff? You look like you're 16 [MIMI] I'm 19, but I'm old for my age I'm just born to be bad [ROGER] I once was born to be bad I used to shiver like that [MIMI] I have no heat, I told you [ROGER] I used to sweat [MIMI] I got a cold [ROGER] Uh huh, I used to be a junkie [MIMI] But now and then I like to... [ROGER] Uh huh [MIMI] Feel good [ROGER] Oh, here it is [MIMI] What's that? [ROGER] Candy bar wrapper [MIMI] We could light the candle Oh, what'd you do to my candle? [ROGER] That was my last match [MIMI] Our eyes'll adjust Thank God for the moon [ROGER] Maybe it's not the moon at all I hear Spike Lee's shooting down the street [MIMI] Bah humbug, bah humbug [ROGER] Cold hands... [MIMI] Yours, too Big, like my father's Do you wanna dance? [ROGER] With you? [MIMI] With my father [ROGER] I'm Roger [MIMI] They call me, they call me Mimi
