[Verse 1]
I was sitting alone, smiling at fate
I didn't notice you were running late
I should have figured it out,
That you'd never come
I ordered us wine like we always done
Stared at the picture of us holding on
To each other like there ain't no doubt
That this was a one
[Chorus]
Well, in the candlelight
You only see what you're wanting to
You might think you fell
For someone else
Falling just like you
But in time the flame
Will slowly wane
And you'll see the truth
That you're sitting at a table for one
You thought was for two
[Verse 2]
We knew all the same movies
And favorite songs
Explored the city hand in hand 'til dawn
You said I made you laugh
That's how it'd begun
And all of our friends told us they knew
That we were perfect for each other too
I wonder what we had and when it was done
[Chorus]
'Cause in the candlelight
You'll only see
What you're wanting to
You might think you fell
For someone else
Falling just like you
But in time the flame
Will slowly wane
And you'll see the truth
That you're sitting at a table for one
You thought was for
[Bridge]
Two, two of the luckiest people to find
Someone who sees them
Someone who needs their
Version of crazy tonight
[Chorus]
But in the candlelight
You only see
What you're wanting to
You might think you fell
For someone else
Falling just like you
But in time the flame
Will slowly wane
And you'll see the truth
That you're sitting at a table for one
You thought was for two
Yeah, you're sitting at a table for one
You thought was for two
