The stars won't come out

if they know

that you're about

'cause they couldn't

match the glow

of your eyes

And, oh, who am I

just an ordinary guy

tryin' hard to win me

first prize

Woah-oh, Candida

we could make it together

the further from here

girl, the better

where the air

is fresh and clean

Hmm-hmm, Candida

just take my hand

and I'll lead ya

I promise life

will be sweeter

and it says so in my dreams

The future is bright

the gypsy told

me so last night

said she saw

our children playin'

in the sunshine

And there was you and I

in a house, baby, no lie

and all these things

were yours

and they were mine

Woah, my Candida

we could make it together

the further from here

girl, the better

where the air

is fresh and clean

Hmm-hmm, Candida

just take my hand

and I'll lead ya

I promise life

will be sweeter

and it says so in my dreams

And, oh, who am I

just an ordinary guy

you know I'm tryin'

hard to win me

first prize

Oh, my Candida

we could make it together

the further from here

girl, the better

where the air

is fresh and clean

Woah, my Candida

just take my hand

and I'll lead ya

I promise that life

will be sweeter

and it says so in my dreams
