Candyman
Quintorigo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Punded hard on your door
I'm gonna pay the cost, what's the price on my soul?
I was mighty mighty lost, If couldn't you remember me.
God only knows how we were friends
There's no need for blame, please don't dismiss my case.
I'm so hungry can you hear me crying?
Hey Candy man.
Low me just a one more chance.
Needs beyond control, don't tell me I walked a ragged mile.
I'm so hungry can you hear me crying?
