"Candy" lyrics - KATE PIERSON

It's a rainy afternoon in 1990
The big city geez it been 20 years
Candy you were so fine

Beautiful beautiful girl from the north
You burned my heart with a flickering torch
I had a dream that no one else could see
You gave me love for free

[Chorus:]
Candy
Candy
Candy I can't let you go
All my life you're haunting me
I loved you so
Candy
Candy
Candy I can't let you go
Life is crazy
Candy baby

[Kate: ]
Yeah, well it hurt me real bad
When you left
I'm glad you got out
But I miss you
I've had a hole in my heart for
So long
I've learned to fake it and just
Smile along
Down on the street
Those men are all the same
I need a love
Not games
Not games

[Chorus to fade]
