Candy Lyrics - Singles - The Wilsons

I saw her there at the back of the bus 

Slipping in and out of consciousness 

Some guy was blowing smoke into her mouth 

Laughing with a madman's look on his face 

And she was smiling, she was on cloud eight 

Missing her stops, playing with fate 

With no one to hold her and no one to see 

She falls to the floor and whispers to me 

In the dark, in the dusk, in the dawning 

I'm Candy, how sweet is my name 

I'm everybody's daughter but no one seems to know her 

I'm Candy and you're all to blame 

Your American daughter, one more for the slaughter 

In the walls of her mind 

There's a girl another time 

And she's dancing in the park 

And in her mother's arms with her mother's heart 

And they're laughing in the rain 

And here she is a laughing again 

It's not funny anymore 

To hear her whisper from behind the door 

In the dark, in the dusk, in the dawning 

I'm Candy, how sweet is my name 

I'm everybody's daughter but no one seems to know her 

I'm Candy and you're all to blame 

Your American daughter, one more for the slaughter 

(Candy) 

Can you understand, Candy? 

(Candy) 

Candy can't understand 

(Candy) 

Can you understand, Candy? 

(Candy) 

Candy can't understand 

In the day, in the dark, in the dusk 'til the dawn 

(In the day, in the dark, in the dusk 'til the dawn) 

In the day, in the dark, in the dusk 'til the dawn 

(In the day, in the dark) 

Candy 

I'm Candy, how sweet is my name 

I'm everybody's daughter but no one seems to know her 

(Candy) 

And you're all to blame 

(Candy) 

Your American daughter, one more for the slaughter 

(Candy) 

Can you understand, Candy? 

(How sweet is my name) 

(Candy) 

Candy can't understand 

(No one seems to know her) 

(Candy) 

Can you understand, Candy? 

(And you're all to blame) 

(Candy) 

Candy can't understand 

(One more for the slaughter) 

She don't understand 

She don't understand 

She don't understand 

...
