The Wilkinsons Never Hold a Candle Lyrics:
(Steve Wilkinson/
Andrew Gold)

When I was a young thing
I swore a Mustang
Would be my ticket
To the great unknown
Yeah I could see me
Hanging out with royalty
La dulce vida cruisin' Monaco

But sittin' here
Parked in your driveway
You're cuddled up
Right close beside me
I gotta say
That this old world
Just ain't thrillin' enough
It could never hold
A candle to love

Way back in grade school
I thought Jenny was so cool
We passed each other
Notes in study hall
She was my first kiss

My heart said this must be it
At 13 you think
you know it all

It's nothin' but
Infatuation
It didn't last
Till graduation
I gotta say
Jenny Parker and a
School boy crush
Could never hold
A candle to love

Love true love knew all along
It would find us
It's such a sweet ride
Just close your eyes
And hold on tight

But sittin' here
With you tonight
Just holdin' hands
Under the moonlight
One kiss and I
I can't recall
What I was thinkin' of
But it could never
Hold a candle to love

No it could never hold
A candle to love
It could never hold
A candle to love
