Candy
Mitchell Rose Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you're the thing that brings me back to life
on the rainiest day I find no stress
although my love for you is in vein
I gotta speak what's drivin me insane
I may not be sweeter than candy
and I may not be good in romancing
but I'll be everything that you askin, of me
I can't bare the thought of living apart
and there's a million other guys who steal your heart
in the end I would think i'm falling to pieces
so if you're leaving won't you hear me out, hear me out
I may not be sweeter than candy
and I may not be good in romancing
but I'll be everything that you're asking, of me.
Just tell me how to see you through
why can't we spend some time together
you're a cue for nasty weather
oh, there's only one thing I wanna change
you in my arms, baby
you in my arms, baby
I may not be sweeter than candy
and I may not be good in romancing
but I'll be everything that you're asking, of me.
Just tell me how to see you through
why can't we spend some time together
you're a cue for nasty weather
I may not be sweeter than candy
I may not be sweeter than candy
Just tell me how to see you through
The lyrics of Mitchell Rose's song Candy seem to be about a person who is deeply in love with someone but feels insecure about their ability to fulfill their partner's needs. The person says that their love interest is the thing that brings them back to life on even the rainiest days and they find no stress in their presence. However, the person acknowledges that their love for the other is unrequited and they need to express what's been driving them insane - the fear of losing them.
The person then admits that they may not be sweeter than candy or good at romancing but they're willing to do anything their partner asks of them and just wants to know how to see them through. They can't bear the thought of living apart from their partner and they believe there are a million other guys who could steal their heart. They feel like they're falling to pieces as the possibility of the other leaving looms over them.
The person ends the song by saying how they wish they could change one thing - to have their love interest in their arms, and they reiterate that they may not be sweeter than candy but they will do anything to see their partner through. Overall, the song seems to be about someone who is deeply in love and willing to do anything for their partner despite their insecurities and fears of what could happen in the future.
