"Candida" lyrics

Candida

The stars won't come out
If they know that you're about
Cause they'll never match
The glow of your eyes
And, oh, who am I?
Just an ordinary guy
Trying hard
To win me first prize

Woh-oh, Candida
We could make it together
The further from here, girl, the better
Where the air is fresh and clean
Candida, Candida
Just take my hand and I'll lead you
I promise life will be sweeter
And it says so in my dreams

The future is bright
The gypsy told me so last night
She said she saw our children
Playing in the sunshine
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
Candida, Candida
Just take my hand and I'll lead you
I promise life will be sweeter
And it says so in my dreams

Oh, who am I?
Just an ordinary guy
Trying 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
Candida, Candida
Just take my hand and I'll lead you
I promise that life will be sweeter
And it says so in my dreams

Candida, Candida
We could make it together
The further from here, girl, the better
Where the air is fresh and clean
