David McWilliams - The Anthology: 1967-1969

Can I Get There by Candlelight?

This is the way to the rolling drums
This is the way to go
This is where the colours run
And lilac oceans flow

I'll show you how the thunders boom
If you will come with me
I'll feed you spice on a silver spoon
Where sunshine lights the sea

Can I get there by candlelight?
Tripping through this empty night?
Can I get there by candlelight?
Or is it much too far?

Is there time to really get there?
Is there time to stay?
Is there very much to see there?
And how much do I pay?

Yes, there's lots of time to get there
And lots of time to stay
There's much for you to do and see there
If you've enough to pay

Can I get there by candlelight?
Tripping through this empty night?
Can I get there by candlelight?
Or is it much too far?

Can I get there by candlelight?
Tripping through this empty night?
Can I get there by candlelight?
Or is it much too far?
