The crooning Chi-city collection known as IBU has given their fans a special release with this drop from the archives. ‘Next to the Candlelight’ is their first ever original song. It’s got that classic R&B sound that some of you slightly older heads such as myself can appreciate. Nothing fancy, no auto-tune, electronic or hip-hop beats…. just a good old fashioned slow jam. You can DL it for free folks!
Lyrics after the break.
I wake up from my dreaming,
With one thing on my mind.
That one day you would be next to me,
Sitting next to the candlelight.Running through the stormy rain,
I see your face smiling back at me.
I wrote you a letter yesterday.
Please take the time to read it.Next to the candlelight,
We will toast our love forever.
Next to the candlelight,
In my arms is where you belong.So many things will be remembered,
And so many slip away.
The glow in your eyes will never fade away.
Baby next to the candlelight.I pick a flower from the garden,
As I walk onto the shore.
Memories of the sunset,
Bring smiles more and more.No need to hurry lets take it slow.
Baby youll see that my love will grow.
Days get colder as I realize.
Seasons just pass me by.Next to the candlelight,
We will toast our love forever.
Next to the candlelight,
In my arms is where you belong.Ill give you my mind, my heart, and soul,
To show you just how much I care.
And in an instant you know that Ill be there.
Baby next to the candlelight.Love can be so confusing.
How can I truly know?
Youve given me so much.
Itll take me forever to ever let you go.So many things will be remembered,
And so many slip away.
The glow in your eyes will never fade away.
Baby next to the candlelight.
