Lyrics Sonic Youth

Sonic Youth

Candle

I see a dog star divin' at his magic, snatchin'

Keeps me up awake, go crystal cracking

I can't wait, I can't stay, a candle

Gotta change my mind before it burns out

I'm the cocker on the rock

Wind is whipping through my stupid mop

I see a falling snowgirl walking Broadway

Turns the corner at 14th and I know there's no way

It's alright, it's alight candle

And I know she'll be okay by Sunday

I'm the cocker on the rock

Humming bash starts shining in your electric clock

It's safe to say, "Candle, tonight's the day, candle"

It's alright now, candle, the wind's away, candle

Never thought I'd see a dog star falling

I'm the cocker on the rock

Wind is whipping through my stupid mop
