Kelly, Paul - Firewood And Candles Lyrics
Firewood and candles on a winter Friday night
Waiting for my sweetheart, I wanna set the scene just right
Wine in the bottles, paella cooking in the pan
Elvis on the stereo, I'm a man with a plan
And when she knocks upon my door, I hope she's got an appetite
We're gonna shut out the world, forget about the TV news
Firewood and candles, tonight they're gonna see us through
We're gonna talk a little
We're gonna kiss a little and then some more
A whole lot more
I'm gonna show her I love her
Below and above her and a whole lot more
Is that the gods come to Earth, or a mule kicking in our stall?
Making all these memories, forever gonna keep us warm
When firewood and candles disappear in the storm
Yeah, we talk a little
We kiss a little and then some more
A whole lot more
Oh, she knows I love her
Below and above her and a whole lot more
Firewood and candles
Firewood and candles
Firewood and candles
Firewood and candles
Firewood and candles
Firewood and candles

Kelly, Paul Firewood And Candles Comments
aussie chef.i can relate.
Drink, Kelly, drink, you're uglier than you think. Ugly little troll, your fans and your songs, they stink.
If there's a worse music video by a major artist I've yet to see it.
Are you kidding? Have you seen anything by Cardi B or Post Malone? Haha.
This is a great music video. It is different, yet good.
i feel like he should be bleeding a lot more after having just removed an organ
Great song, bizarre video. Also, as I'm vegan, I really disliked certain bits! Ah, well. Can't win 'em all.
Ive just spent an hour and a half coming up with a sick bass part for this, check my instagram for it soon @cammoloney (not trying to get followers just trying to see what everyone thinks of it) LOVE THIS SONGGGGG! https://www.instagram.com/p/B1lNt6aH0cs/?igshid=clx2yyxq1flc
To me sounds like a 50s beat
A class act is Paul
lmao at people getting triggered by the video, love your work Paul
The Video makes perfect sense. and no not talking about PRC, another King. well done Paul.
I have this song
my love is vegeterian what should i do now
lol sounds like you stole the riff from Type-O negatives 'profits of doom' in the mid point of that song!
Bernard King did nobody get the Irony (sic).
Where's the outback aussie film clip? Why not just have him in an outback cottage overlooking beautiful outback scenery?
FIVE WOODEN CANDLES!
Well it's official, Kelly's finally gone mental.
What a creep. This is why they invented radio
Love that main guitar riff...songs got a bit of a B-52s vibe about it...particulary with those vocals and the keyboard organ.
"Below her and above her and a whole lot more"... I kind of prefer Tim Minchin's version of those lyrics... "Below her and above her and across the floor / Below her and above her and against the door".
"Yeah we talk a little, we kiss a little, and then some more, a whole lot more"
1:50... what is he insinuating? Hahaha
Good song, but the clip is a tad strange. Keep up the good work Paul.
Who is Paul Kelly?
Very disappointed in this for someone of Paul's iconic status and now an ARIA winner: a very ordinary song with no melodic highlights and a lot of repeats, with very ordinary lyrics in a very ordinary video clip.
"song of the year" ?????
wow, the cook and the chef gets pretty dark
Never been a Paul Kelly fan - the song is great - BUT JEEZUS Please fire whom ever did this film clip. I mean, take a step back and think of what then music is saying to the sound and feeling of the song.
Wow! It looks like you really pulled one of your organs out paul
Wish he showed us how make gravy too
He likes 'gravy' all over his face.
Someones cracked
Why the fuck does he keep finding diamonds in his food?
Andy and I cooked Risotto not Paella. Nice reference to my crystals. ;)
melinda vee care to explain what you mean?
Bill Rowse this song was written about a friend and I.
Totally awesome song!!!
gold,go man go
Sounds like Happy Man from the Sunnyboys.
Am i the only one who likes the video
No, I quite like it. We do seem to be in the minority somewhat.
you should be
I dig it
Do you watch my kitchen rules?
Love it
Paul??? worst clip ever. Why??????????????????????????????
Congrats on making best male artist at the ARIA awards for 2017 Paul, sticking it to the younger generation with your real Aussie rock n roll!
Paul if you want some idea's for your next filmclip message me
And yes we did miss you Mr Paul Kelly!
Quin I definitely agree with you. I posted it cause I love the song. It is a terrible film clip. I would have liked to have seen an old Qld house with candles lit throughout and a fire in the backyard lol.
I totally agree, can picture it now, what were they thinking
Er...the Sunnyboys called ...they want their song back, Paul.
he's still rocking it after all these years. respect!
Triple m much
great song , creepy awful film clip . the worst clip I have ever seen ,yukk
ross hoek that's the intended tone
Garbage. Australia's most overrated singer, the simplest of tunes and everyone puts him on a pedestal, fucking joke!
straittalkn why are you watching it then?
Simplicity doesn't eliminate quality from the equation. He's a singer-songwriter, that shit ain't meant to be complicated.
Each artist has their own style and limitations. If you want technically complicated pop with soul, Laura Nyro set the benchmark with her LP 'Eli and the Thirteenth Confession' (1968). She used NYC's finest jazz musicians to play it.
It's about soul, mate.
a really great song but a terribly bad video
the lead line reminds me of b52's and the melody is pretty much zoot suit riot, so maybe 8/10
And, still.....King!!
Brad Pamp you're kidding yourself.
Just to the least great uncle Paul you’re a musical success please a chef you should be able too¥
Thank you Paul Kelly and your wonderful fellow band, for a great performance in Sellersville theatre PA.
I always thought he was saying "five wooden candles". Bemused as to what a wooden candle was...now I know!
Horrible Film Clip, But Its A Wonderful Song!
good song, terrible film clip
Quin Latimore the clip is the best part 😂😂
True but it's Paul Kelly so he can do what the fuck he wants and its cool.
Whats wrong with it he's just cooking and baking a cake
Good song, shame the riff is stolen
This is good stuff. He's been better but who cares. Just great to see him doing well as he so richly deserves. What an amazing career. And a top bloke
Love this song. I first heard it on ABC radio and thought I was listening to Bob Dylan. (that's a complement)
Wow, after more than 30 years, he's still churning out songs like this ! Paul has rightly earned the title of Australia's best songwriter.
jim mac you've got to be kidding
straittalkn no he's not kidding, you walnut
jim mac Jim mac you've got spiders running round in ya head.
See you in Montreal!
We missed you Paul
My teachers brother.
Outstanding Paul thanks mate for all the years of tunes:)
Catchy! Interesting film.. Love you Paul
Bloody Brilliant, Paul.
You should tour again soon!
love it
Ohhh back to basics.... LOVE this. Paul just is the best Aussie songwriter we have had IMO.
No more experimenting with folk music son. This is back t o simple pop song material combined with fantastic lyrics. Finally, back to the Paul I know and love
Mad scientist vibes there Paul 😂
love it!
Me too!!
very good
what a tune
