written by Graham Nash
recorded by Crosby, Stills, Nash, (and sometimes Young)

I'll light the fire
You put the flowers in the vase
That you bought today
Staring at the fire
For hours and hours
While I listen to you
Play your love songs
All night long for me
Only for me

Come to me now
And rest your head for just five minutes
Everything is good
Such a cosy room
The windows are illuminated
By the evening sunshine through them
Fiery gems for you
Only for you

Our house is a very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy
'Cause of you

And now la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la

Our house is a very, very, very fine house
With two cats in the yard
Life used to be so hard
Now everything is easy 'cause of you.

And now, I'll light the fire
And you place the flowers in the vase
That you bought today
