Lyrics
Warm at home on this big old smelly sofa
Expressing comfort and coziness at home, possibly with a nostalgic touch.
That makes me feel like I'm five again
Feeling a sense of childlike joy and innocence, reminiscent of being five years old.
It's the end of the day, the hearth is ablaze
Describing the end of the day, with a warm fire burning, providing a relaxing atmosphere.
And I'm resting my weary brain
Taking a break to relax and unwind, allowing the mind to rest.
It's funny, there's a fire full of flames
Noting the presence of a lively fire with flames, creating a contrast with the central focus.
But above it, in the centre of the mantelpiece
Highlighting a central spot on the mantelpiece, drawing attention to a specific element.
Is One Candle, dancing in the mirror
Emphasizing the presence of a single candle, possibly symbolizing a singular point of focus.
One Candle holds my gaze
The lone candle captures the observer's attention, suggesting a deeper significance.
There's a fire full of flames, but
Despite the presence of a full-fledged fire, the attention remains fixed on the solitary candle.
One Candle holds my gaze
Reiteration of the captivating effect of the single candle amidst the larger flames.
It smiles this room, and it's musty and it's rosy
Describing the room as smiling, indicating a positive and pleasant atmosphere.
And it's possible that I'll doze off quite soon.
Suggesting the possibility of drifting into sleep soon due to the cozy environment.
And so to bed.
Transitioning to bedtime, using the metaphor of going up the wooden hill.
Up the wooden hill we go and say goodnight until tomorrow
Wishing goodnight, anticipating a new day to come.
It's funny, there's a fire full of flames
Repeating the observation of a vibrant fire, contrasting with the focal point on the mantelpiece.
But above it, in the centre of the mantelpiece
Reiterating the central position of the single candle on the mantelpiece.
Is One Candle, dancing in the mirror
Re-emphasizing the presence of the lone candle, dancing and drawing attention in the mirror.
One Candle holds my gaze
Underlining the captivating effect of the single candle, holding the observer's gaze.
One Candle, dancing in the mirror
Repetition of the image of the candle dancing in the mirror, reinforcing its significance.
One Candle holds my gaze
Reiterating the captivating effect of the single candle, maintaining focus amid the flames.
There's a fire full of flames, but
Highlighting the contrast between the larger fire and the persistent focus on the single candle.
One Candle holds my gaze
Concluding with the continued emphasis on the captivating nature of the lone candle.
