Candida Songtext
von Jesse Winchester

Oh, the stars won′t come out
If they know that you are about
'Cause they could not match the brightness in your eyes
And oh, who am I
But just an ordinary guy
Who′s trying his best to come up with the first prize?

Oh, my Candida
We could make it together
But the further from here, girl, the better
Where the air is still fresh and still clean
Oh, my Candida
Take my hand and I'll lead you
I promise you life can be sweeter
It says so in all of my dreams


And oh, this is right
A gypsy told me so just last night
She said she saw our children playing
Off in the sunshine
She said there were you and I
In this house, girl, and this is no lie
She said all these things 'bout right
They′re yours and they′re mine

Oh, my Candida
We could make it together
But the further from here, girl, the better
Where the air is still fresh and still clean
Oh, my Candida
Take my hand and I'll lead you
I promise you life can be sweeter
It says so in all of my dreams

Oh, my Candida

We could surely make it together
But the further from here, girl, the better
Where the air is still fresh and still clean
Oh, my Candida
Take my hand and I′ll lead you
I promise you life can be sweeter
It says so in all of my dreams
Oh, my Candida


We could surely make it together
But the further from here, girl, the better
Where the air is still fresh and still clean
