Candles歌词

[by:February-in-beauty]
[00:00.00]They are the last romantics,these candles:
[00:03.55]Upside down hearts of light tipping wax fingers,
[00:07.23]And the fingers,taken in by their own haloes,
[00:11.45]Grown milky,almost clear,like the bodies of saints.
[00:16.34]It is touching,the way they will ignore
[00:17.45]a whole family of prominent objects,
[00:22.25]Simply to plumb the deeps of an eye.
[00:24.24]In its hollow of shadows,its fringe of reeds,
[00:28.55]And the owner past thirty,no beauty at all.
[00:33.15]Daylight would be more judicious,
[00:35.15]Giving everybody a fair hearing.
[00:38.35]They should have gone out with balloon flights and the stereopticon.
[00:43.25]This is no time for the private point of view.
[00:47.45]When I light them,my nostrils prickle.
[00:50.34]Their pale,tentative yellows,
[00:53.24]Drag up false,Edwardian sentiments,
[00:55.34]And I remember my maternal grandmother from Vienna.
[01:00.05]As a school girl she gave roses to Franz Josef,
[01:05.23]The burghers sweated and wept.The children wore white.
[01:09.67]And my grandfather moped in the Tyrol,
[01:13.00]Imagining himself a headwaiter in America,
[01:16.45]Floating in a high-church hush.
[01:19.34]Among ice buckets,frosty napkins.
[01:24.45]These little globes of light are sweet as pears.
[01:28.34]Kindly with invailds and mawkish women,
[01:31.67]They mollify the bald moon,
[01:34.13]Nun-souled,they burn heavenward and never marry.
[01:39.45]The eyes of the child I nurse are scarcely open.
[01:44.35]In twenty years I shall be retrograde
[01:46.12]as these daughty ephemerids,
[01:49.12]I watch their spilt tears cloud and dull to pearls,
[01:54.37]How shall I tell anything at all?
[01:57.48]To this infant still in a birth-drowse?
[02:01.78]Tonight,like a shawl,the mild light enfolds her,
[02:06.45]The shadows stoop over like guests at a christening.
