Soul for Real Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Candy-coated raindrops?
You're the same, my candy rain
Have you ever loved someone
So much you thought you'd die?
Giving so much of yourself
It seems the only way
And I will give it to you
'Cause you are
My love (my love), do you ever dream of (do you ever dream)
Candy-coated raindrops? (Ooh-whoa, darling)
You're the same, my candy rain
My love, did you ever dream
That it could be so right?
I never thought that I would find
All that I need in life
All I want, all I need, now, I know
I know I found it in you (I found it in you)
'Cause you are
My love (my love), do you ever dream of (do you ever dream)
Candy-coated raindrops? (Ohh-whoa)
You're the same, my candy rain (darling)
My love (my love), do you ever dream of (do you ever dream)
Candy-coated raindrops? (Whoa, whoa)
You're the same, my candy rain
(You're the same, my candy rain)
My love (tell me, oh), do you ever dream of (if you ever loved someone)
Candy-coated raindrops? (Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, baby, baby, baby)
You're the same, my candy rain (my candy rain)
Candy-coated raindrops (candy-coated raindrops)
Candy-coated raindrops
My love, do you ever dream of
Candy-coated raindrops?
You're the same, my candy rain
My love, do you ever dream of
Candy-coated raindrops?
You're the same, my candy rain
