Candy

Can't give you diamond rings

Candy, I love you... Close your sleepy eyes
I'll come to visit you in your dreams tonight
Nobody else will ever know
No one will see me come and go
Fill your bed with violets and moonbeams

Candy, I love you... Open up your heart
I'll show you how to make love to a work of art
Draw you up close in virgin blues
Colors Picasso never used
Every stroke will be a revelation

Someday I'll paint my masterpiece
But until I do
Can't give you diamond rings
Only simpler things
Sweet jam, peaches and cream, Mmm Candy

I lost my heart the day we met
Now it's in your hands
Please treat it tenderly
I will never be free
Till you take all of me, I love you

Candy, I love you... Tell me you'll be mine
I'd die to sip at your lips like cherry wine
Lay you down, whisper in your ear
Tell you the words I long to hear
I just want to melt away inside you

Can't give you diamond rings
Only simpler things
Sweet jam, peaches and cream
Oh, Candy
