Candy Lyrics - Phenomenon - Ll Cool J

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 butterflies in a while 

Funny how you grow up and innocence fades 

We used to live for love but now we're afraid 

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 

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 sucked caramel apple lolly pops 

Rain sleet or snow I'm troopin' up the Murdock 

We used to walk down the block holdin' hands 

I would get you after school 'cause I was your man 

And any guys that wanna socialize 

Just know that I'm a flip on any cat that try's 

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 

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 

(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'ma take you where the average man can only dream of 

'Cause in a world so sour I got the sweetest love 

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 

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
