Candy

(album: Local Motion - 2019)

I want you like candy, candy, candy
Cause you're so sweet, but I just can't cheat
No

I never had a clue
That I would run into you
Turns out you weren't the Catholic girl
I maybe thought I knew
But now I'm next to you
Just trying to make some sense
Of this coincidence in which I'm falling

How did we wind up
In a parking lot
In the backseat
With a mixtape
Sipping on 40 ounces of red red wine
California loving on a Friday night
She was counting all the stars in my eyes

I want you like candy, candy, candy
Cause you're so sweet, but I just can't cheat
No

But I want you like candy, candy, candy
So badly, tangled in my sheets
Oh

We're checking in for two
Which I know I shouldn't do
Sexual tension rises
Now I'm lying next to you
I'm touching your tattoo
Now it's too late, I sealed my fate
There's no escape because I'm falling

We wound up
In a hotel room
On the balcony
Smoking cigarettes
Sipping on gin and juice
While we stir it up
But every little thing is not alright
Now she's counting all the stars in my eyes

I want you like candy, candy, candy
Cause you're so sweet, but I just can't cheat
No

But I want you like candy, candy, candy
So badly, tangled in my sheets
Oh

(So badly, tangled up in my sheets)

She said, every midnight hour needs a secret
And that could be
You and me
Oh

I want you like candy, candy, candy
Cause you're so sweet, but I just can't cheat
No

But I want you like candy, candy, candy
So badly, tangled up in my sheets
Oh

I want you like candy, candy, candy
