lyrics

Standing in this world of glass, the mirrors are facing me
Can't decide if this is real, or if we're really free
Dreams collide and we survive, saying which one will it be
With lines so straight, it's easy faith and I know I wanna be

With your candy
With your candy

Peel back the gate don't hide away, these visions are haunting me
Dislocate from inner haste, let everyone be free
Forget the past there's only now, which do you want to believe
That everybody's everybody else's inner beast
So drop me off at this next turn, 'coz I think I wanna be

With your candy
With your candy

Saving every blessing comes my way
Don't remind me that love is not a game
Till I reach the top I don't think I'll fall in the same way
And I'd give anything to spend just one more day

With your candy
With your candy
With your candy giving love I don't think I'll ever pay
for anything you want it I could get it if you stayed
But your jetstream's passing by, so I'll take what I can get
And more and more I keep telling you, you're the sweetest I've tasted yet

You're my candy
You're my candy

about

Simon Hughes Madrid, Spain

I write songs like others might paint, keep a sketchbook or even get a new tattoo. It just takes whatever form it takes, when the song is whirling around my head at that moment. It's hard to put moments of your life into genre, right? My songs are about love, life, protest and frustration, honesty and sometimes just outright improvisation.

Thanks for your ears! ... more
