Mark Hollis - Candy lyrics

This sure is some kind of party It's so useful Surrounds my life with excuses For what I choose to lose And my name Doesn't look the same to me And inside Don't you know I feel so bad Candy When I tried to turn away To feel new again My emotion cost me pain Did I look the same When I think about the times That I laughed away the idea you'd cheat me But look again What do you say 'That's my name' AND I HOPE THAT I'VE KEPT YOU AMUSED TO WIPE THAT SPIT RIGHT OFF MY BOOTS And when I'm home and thinking in the dark I hope that none of this has had to go too far When it gets too late To see me any other way And it gets so hard to hold on To everything that I want so bad
