The Magnetic Fields, "Candy"
(1992)
Candy, it's been really nice
But I've got to go
'Cause I can't be the part of your life
You don't wanna know
And I can't keep lying all the time
And I know you'll find a better man
They're all too easy to find
And I'll just go away somewhere
And slowly lose my mind
Candy, they called you a baby
They called you a whore
And I can't see the light at the end for you anymore
Candy, I can't be the man they want me to be
Maybe it was only with you that I could be me
Thanks,
Erie!
