Candyman Lyrics
Vertical Horizon
[Chorus]
And even though I'm right behind you
Shadows haunt and taunt your hand
I cannot be your everything
But I'll be your candyman
You move a sudden grace, a child upon the Earth
You wanted love to find you but you found it first
[Chorus]
We look through antiques on a fuzzy, fuzzy day
But you always know just what you want
Want right away
[Chorus]
And though you cry at night
It's to be expected
But know you're mine tonight
So when the sun has died you dive into your mind
But your soul is never lost until the deal is signed
[Chorus]
And even though I'm right behind you
Shadows haunt and taunt your hand
I cannot be your everything
But I'll be your candyman
You move a sudden grace, a child upon the Earth
You wanted love to find you but you found it first
[Chorus]
We look through antiques on a fuzzy, fuzzy day
But you always know just what you want
Want right away
[Chorus]
And though you cry at night
It's to be expected
But know you're mine tonight
So when the sun has died you dive into your mind
But your soul is never lost until the deal is signed
[Chorus]
