Candy Man

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
