The song Never Hold A Candle is performed by The Wilkinsons .
(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 pa*sed 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
