|
I blew in on the west wind |
|
To where the wind was cold |
|
Money in my pocket |
|
Nothing in my soul |
|
In the lobby at the hotel |
|
She caught my eye |
|
She looked vulnerable |
|
And strong at the same time |
|
Down in the city |
|
Where the lights shine red |
|
Just a lonely John and a Russian princess |
|
I said "Baby, here I am |
|
I've been sent to save you |
|
From this broken land |
|
Where the skies are always blue |
|
I can make your dreams come true |
|
I wanna be your candy man" |
|
She left her little baby |
|
By her momma's side |
|
Said she'd be back |
|
Then she turned and walked and cried |
|
She ain't returning |
|
'Til she can do it right |
|
With a bigger bag of money |
|
I said "I can help you honey" |
|
I said "Baby, here I am |
|
I've been sent to save you |
|
From this broken land |
|
Where the skies are always blue |
|
I can make your dreams come true |
|
I wanna be your candy man" |
|
Baby, here I am |
|
I've been sent to save you |
|
From this broken land |
|
Where the skies are always blue |
|
I can make your dreams come true |
|
I wanna be your candy man |
