[Verse 1: LL Cool J]
|
|
When you was seventeen and I was nineteen
|
we feel deep in love growing up in Queens
|
we didn't know a thing about love
|
we was innocent sneakin' on the doorstep to hug
|
held you tightly and promised you the world
|
you gave me hickys and said you was my girl
|
when I think about it now makes me smile
|
cause I ain't felt these butterflies in a while
|
funny how you grow up and innocence fades
|
we used to live for love but now we're afraid (of what?)
|
of the darkness and bitter memories
|
lovers who crushed us through infidelity
|
I promised you I'd love you to the end
|
always and forever since way back when
|
you're like candy the world's sweetest friend
|
you taste better now than you did back then
|
|
[Chorus: Bell/Tresvan]
|
|
you will always be my candy
|
one day we will start a family
|
you will always be my candy girl
|
(you'll be my candy girl forever)
|
you will always be my candy
|
want your love girl understand me
|
you will always be my candy girl
|
|
[Verse 2: LL Cool J]
|
|
while you sucked caramel apple lolly pops
|
rain sleet or snow I'm troopin' up the murdock
|
we used to walk down the block hold hands
|
I would get you after school cause I was your man
|
and any guys that wanna socalize
|
just know that I'm a flip on any cat that trys
|
my peeps used to say I was whipped
|
all your girls said since you got with him you flipped
|
but uh they couldn't feel the feelings we felt
|
mirrors on the ceiling we melt
|
I would look up at ya I remember
|
the afternoon you surrendered
|
we made love the tempature was high as could be
|
you said Todd promise you ain't liein' to me
|
and as we went our seperate ways you turned back
|
smiled I remember all that
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse 3: Bell/Tresvant, LL Cool J]
|
|
(take it to the bridge)
|
candy girl
|
you are my world
|
look so sweet
|
you're a special treat
|
candy gir
|
all I want to say
|
I need your love
|
each and every day
|
|
when I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
|
and in the back of my mind I hear my memories call
|
of days when love was true I slept and held you
|
taste the brown sugar let your climax melt yo
|
candy you're occupying all of my thoughts
|
turned my soul upside down with lessons you taught
|
I can feel you even when you're far away you're right here wit' me
|
sweet love strictly
|
and I'm a bend over backwards to keep you on my side
|
take you for a mental and emotional ride
|
make love to your soul your heart and your mind
|
in your hour of need girl I'll be there every time
|
and as long as you support my dreams
|
stayin' right beside me as a part of my team
|
I'll take you where the average man can only dream of
|
cause in a world so sour I got the sweetest love
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Outro: Bell/Tresvant]
|
|

|

|
look so sweet
|
you're a special trea
|
(you'll be my candy girl forever)
|
candy girl
|
all I want to say
|
(word is bond sweetheart)
|
I need your love
|
(I swear I'm down for whatever)
|
candy girl
|
(sometimes you gotta go back home)
|
look so sweet
|
(I love you)
|
candy girl
