Candy Coated Kisses

(album: The Travelin' Bare - 1964)

You speak and the words flow like honey
Your kiss holds a promise so sweet
But all of these things that you tell me
You tell to each new love you meet.

Candy coated kisses
Sugar coated lies
Oh, how I want to believe them
But only a fool would try.

You smile and my whole world turns sunny
You know just the right things to say
Your words paint such beautiful pictures
Pictures that soon fade away.

How many hearts have you broken
How many lips have you kissed
I don't wanna know so don't tell me
Just add my name to your list.

Candy coated kisses
Sugar coated lies
Oh, how I want to believe them
But only a fool would try.

Only a fool would try, only a fool would try.
(Candy coated kisses...)
