Candy lyrics

I was perched outside in the pouring rain

Trying to make myself a sail

Then I'll float to you, my darling

With the evening on my tail

Although not the most honest means of travel

It gets me there nonetheless

I'm a heartless man at worst, babe

And a helpless one at best

Darling, I'll bathe your skin

I'll even wash your clothes

Just give me some candy before I go

Oh, darling, I'll kiss your eyes

And lay you down on your rug

Just give me some candy after my hug

Oh, and I'm often found explaining

But to her it plays out all the same

And although I'm left defeated

It gets held against my name

I know you got plenty to offer, baby

But I guess I've taken quite enough

Well I'm some stain there on your bedsheet

You're my diamond in the rough

Darling, I'll bathe your skin

I'll even wash your clothes

Just give me some candy before I go

Oh, darling, I'll kiss your eyes

And lay you down on your rug

Just give me some candy after my hug

I know that there're writings on the wall

But, darling, I'll bathe your skin

I'll even wash your clothes

Just give me some candy before I go

Oh, darling, I'll kiss your eyes

And lay you down on your rug

Just give me some candy after my hug

Oh and I'll be there waiting for you

And I'll be there waiting for you

Oh I'll be there waiting for you

Oh I'll be there waiting for you

Oh I'll be there waiting for you

Oh I'll be there waiting for you

All the cutthroats and the jagged ends

All of them have got me waiting and waiting

All the cheap and the sugary philosophies

Have got me on the fence just waiting and waiting

All the angels and their halos

All of them have got me waiting and waiting

All the cutthroats and the jagged ends

All of them have got me waiting and waiting

All the cheap and the sugary philosophies

Have got me on the fence just waiting and waiting

All the angels and their halos

All they do is keep me waiting and waiting

[In background:] I'll be there
