A Week and a Day by The Late Late Show with James Corden Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2019

[Intro: James Corden]
Girl, it's that special time of year
The festival of lights
But ain't no light shine brighter
Than the one in your eyes

[Chorus: Josh Peck, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Charlie Puth, Zach Braff & (All)]
Got a week and a day of love for you
This Hanukkah, girl
Got a week and a day to show you
How much I care
Got a week and a day of presents for a
Girl that shines brighter than any menorah
When you light the candles, baby
I wanna be there
(I wanna be there)

[Verse 1: Zach Braff, Josh Peck, Charlie Puth, James Corden & (Christopher Mintz-Plasse)]
Candle one
You strike the match and say the blessing
Candle two
Your sparkling eyes reflect the flame
(Candle three)
Your perfect lips sing out the prayer we're both expressing
Candle four
You make a latke and you're calling my name
[Chorus: All]
Got a week and a day of love for you
This Hanukkah, girl
Got a week and a day to show you
How much I care
When the world gets sad, our hearts will free us
Just like Judas Maccabeus
When you light the candles, baby
I wanna be there

[Verse 2: James Corden, Zach Braff, Charlie Puth, Christopher Mintz-Plasse & (Josh Peck)]
Candle five
Oh, girl, you spin me like a dreidel
Candle six
You pick me up when I fall down
(Candle seven)
Then you wrap me like a blintz and rock me like a cradle
Candle eight
Your eyes are fires that make me melt
Your lovin' is sweeter than Hanukkah gelt

[Bridge: Zach Braff, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Charlie Puth, Josh Peck & (All)]
Girl, barukh ata ado-know how you do it
Eloheinu melekh ha'o-love to be with you
Asher my life with you, b'mitzvotav
V'tzivanu l'hadlik never leave me
(Shel Hanukkah)
[Chorus: All]
Got a week and a day of love for you
This Hanukkah, girl
Got a week and a day to show you
How much I care
Got a week and a day of presents for a
Girl that shines brighter than any menorah
When you light the candles, baby
I wanna be there

[Chorus: All]
Got a week and a day of love for you
This Hanukkah, girl
Got a week and a day to show you
How much I care
Our light of love will stay reflected
Eight times longer than expected
When you light the candles, baby
I wanna be there

[Outro: Charlie Puth & All]
When you light the candles, baby
I wanna be there
Happy Hanukkah, girl
