Candles Lyrics - Out Of The Game - Rufus Wainwright

I tried to do all that I can 

But the churches have run out of candles 

I tried to give you all I own 

But the bankers have run out of loaners 

It's always just that little bit more 

That doesn't get you what you're looking for 

I tried to block the cabin door 

But the churches have run out of candles 

I tried to lend a helping hand 

But the rooms have all run out of pamphlets 

I tried to cook it up and turn 

The kitchen has run out of canned bits

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

It's always just that little bit more 

That doesn't get you what you're looking for 

I tried a beggin on the cabin floor 

But the churches have run out of candles 

Turn one day in the cathedral 

I finally lit you a candle 

And all along the vaulted halls 

The virgins did smile from their mantles 

It's always just that little bit more 

That doesn't get you what you're looking for 

But gets you where you need to go 

But the churches have run out of candles 

It's always just that little bit more 

That doesn't get you what you're looking for 

But gets you where you need to go 

But the churches have run out of candles

It's always just that little bit more 

That doesn't get you what you're looking for 

But gets you where you need to go 

But the churches have run out of candles
