Candida

The stars won't come out

If they know that you're about

'Cause they couldn't match the glow of your eyes

And, oh, who am I?

Just an ordinary guy

Tryin' hard to win me first prize

Oh, Candida

We could make it together

The further from here girl the better

Where the air is fresh and clean

Hmm hmm, Candida

Just take my hand and I'll lead ya

I promise that life will be sweeter

And it said so in my dreams

The future is bright

The gypsy told me so last night

Said, "She saw our children playin' in the sunshine"

And there were you and I

In a house, baby no lie

And all these things were yours

And they were mine

Oh, my Candida

We could make it together

The further from here girl the better

Where the air is fresh and clean

Hmm hmm, Candida

Just take my hand and I'll lead ya

I promise life will be sweeter

And it said so in my dreams

And, oh, who am I?

Just an ordinary guy

You know I

Tryin' hard to win me first prize

Oh, my Candida

We could make it together

The further from here girl the better

Where the air is fresh and clean

Oh, my Candida

Just take my hand and I'll lead ya

I promise that life will be sweeter

'Cause it said so in my dreams
