Daphne Rubin-Vega - Light My Candle lyrics

[Roger] What'd you forget? [Mimi] Got a light? [Roger] I know you, you're...you're shivering [Mimi] It's nothing, they turned off my heat And I'm just a little weak on my feet Would you light my candle? What are you staring at? [Roger] Nothing, your hair in the moonlight You look familiar Can you make it? [Mimi] Just haven't eaten much today At least the room stopped spinning, anyway What? [Roger] Nothing, your smile reminded me of [Mimi] I always remind people of... Who is she? [Roger] She died, her name was April [Mimi] It's out again Sorry about your friend Would you light my candle? [Roger] Well... [Mimi] Yeah? Ow! [Roger] Oh, the wax, it's... [Mimi] Dripping! I like it between my... [Roger] Fingers, I figured Oh, well, goodnight It blew out again? [Mimi] No, I think that I dropped my stash [Roger] I know I've seen you out and about When I used to go out Your candle's out [Mimi] I'm illin', I had it when I walked in the door It was pure Is it on the floor? [Roger] The floor? [Mimi] They say that I have the best a** Below 14th Street, is it true? [Roger] What? [Mimi] You're staring again [Roger] Oh no, I mean you do, have a nice--- I mean - you look familiar [Mimi] Like your dead girlfriend [Roger] Only when you smile But I'm sure I've seen you somewhere else [Mimi] Do you go to the Cat Scratch Club? That's where I work, I dance Help me look! [Roger] Yes! They used to tie you up [Mimi] It's a living [Roger] I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs [Mimi] We could light the candle Oh, won't you light the candle? [Roger] Why don't you forget that stuff? You look like you're sixteen [Mimi] I'm nineteen, but I'm old for my age I'm just born to be bad [Roger] I once was born to be bad I used to shiver like that [Mimi] I have no heat, I told you [Roger] I used to sweat [Mimi] I got a cold [Roger] Uh huh, I used to be a junkie [Mimi] But now and then I like to... [Roger] Uh huh [Mimi] Feel good [Roger] Oh, here it... [Mimi] What's that? [Roger] It's a candy bar wrapper [Mimi] We could light the candle Oh, what'd you do with my candle? [Roger] That was my last match [Mimi] Our eyes'll adjust Thank God for the moon [Roger] Maybe it's not the moon at all I hear Spike Lee's shooting down the street [Mimi] Bah humbug, bah humbug [Roger] Cold hands... [Mimi] Yours too Big, like my father's Do you wanna dance? [Roger] With you? [Mimi] No, with my father [Roger] I'm Roger [Mimi] They call me, they call me... Mimi
