CANDY CAME BACK

Candy came back to amazing acclaim 
Saying if this is love give me more of the same 
The people were waiting in crowds for the sight  
Of her face in the car driving into the night 
And she says they gotta have someone  
I might as well let it be me 
For all my life was a dream 

In the shops and the factories they talk about you 
And the girls in the street wear their hair like you do 
Hordes of reporters are always at hand 
And the cameras are ready whenever you land 
But she says it couldn't be better  
I don't let it get in my way  
All my life was a dream 

I'm not sentimental for the ticker tape life  
I could lose it all in just the card of the night 
So don't you worry about the things that I do 
There are times I need to get away from you 
But every time I try to close my door  
I seem to fascinate you more and more and more 

Candy came back to amazing acclaim 
Through the hot summer night they were calling her name 
They seemed to be drawn by the power of her fame  
Like a gull to the water a moth to the flame 
But she says, oh it's not what I did 
And they saw what they wanted to see 
For all my life was a dream
