Candy – Mark Hollis Demo Version

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  now now

No no not me now

And inside

Don’t you know that I feel so bad, yeah yeah

I try to buy more approval

Well I try to now now now now now

But these eyes that I look through

Tell me people don’t seem to matter all that much to me now

When it gets too late

To see me any other way

Anyway

And inside

Don’t you know I feel so bad?

Yeah yeah

Candy,

When I tried to turn away

To feel new again

(Candy)

My emotion cost me pain

Did I look the same

(Candy)

When I think about the times

That I laughed away

(Candy)

the idea you’d cheat me

But look again

What do you say ‘That’s my name’

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah…

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 I hope I hope 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

Candy

When I tried to turn away

To feel new again

(Candy)

My emotion cost me pain

Did I look the same

(Candy)

When I think about the times

That I laughed away

(Candy)

the idea you’d cheat me

But look again

What do you say ‘That’s my name’

Yeah yeah yeah. Yeah yeah yeah….
