CANDY IN THE WINDOW
(Tom T. Hall)


Marilyn Sellars - 1974



Don't kiss my lips and say goodbye, it makes me want you more
In a way I knew somebody like you once before
I know that love is waiting for you farther down the line
Sweet candy in the window of my mind

You're candy in the window and I'm that ragged child
Who came to town to stare into your window for a while
I wish you every happiness you'll ever hope to find
Sweet candy in the window of my mind

(Instrumental Break)

Remember me, for I'm the one who never will forget
Oh, you know the way that life is
You may decide you want me yet
I'll be here if you ever want me later down the line
Sweet candy in the window of my mind
Sweet candy in the window of my mind
