Ll Cool J - Candy lyrics

When you was seventeen and I was nineteen We feel deep in love growing up in Queens We didn't know a thing about love We was innocent sneakin' on the doorstep to hug Held you tightly and promised you the world You gave me hickeys and said you was my girl When I think about it now makes me smile Cause I ain't felt these bu*terflies in a while Funny how you grow up and innocence fades We used to live for love but now we're afraid (Of what?) Of the darkness and bitter memories Lovers who crushed us through infidelity I promised you I'd love you to the end Always and forever since way back when You're like candy the world's sweetest friend You taste better now than you did back then [Chorus] You will always be my candy One day we will start a family You will always be my candy girl (You'll be my candy girl forever) You will always be my candy Want your love girl, understand me You will always be my candy girl While you s**ed caramel apple lollipops Rain sleet or snow I'm troopin' up the murdock We used to walk down the block hold hands I would get you after school 'cause I was your man And any guys that want to socialize Just know that I'm a flip on any cat that tries My peeps used to say I was whipped All your girls said since you got with him you flipped But uh they couldn't feel the feelings we felt Mirrors on the ceiling we melt I would look up at ya I remember The afternoon you surrendered We made love the temperature was high as could be You said "Todd promise you ain't lyin' to me" And as we went our separate ways you turned back Smiled, I remember all that [Chorus] (Take it to the bridge) Candy girl You are my world Look so sweet You're a special treat Candy girl All I want to say I need your love Each and every day When I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall And in the back of my mind I hear my memories call Of days when love was true I slept and held you Taste the brown sugar, let your climax melt you Candy you're occupying all of my thoughts Turned my soul upside down with lessons you taught I can feel you even when you're far away you're right here wit' me Sweet love strictly And I'm a bend over backwards to keep you on my side Take you for a mental and emotional ride Make love to your soul, your heart, and your mind In your hour of need girl, I'll be there every time And as long as you support my dreams Stayin' right beside me as a part of my team I'll take you where the average man can only dream of Cause in a world so sour I got the sweetest love [Chorus] Candy girl You are my world Look so sweet You're a special treat (You'll be my candy girl forever) Candy girl All I want to say (Word is bond sweetheart) I need your love (I swear I'm down for whatever) Candy girl (sometimes you gotta go back home) Look so sweet (I love you) Candy girl
