Reeves, Jim - A Nickel Piece Of Candy Lyrics






When you were a little girl and lived across the street
We would walk to the candy store and I would always treat
Little big hearted candy boy the candy man would say
When I bought you candy bars to steal your heart away

Just a nickel piece of candy used to make your dreams come true
You'd hold my hand and tell me someday I'd love you

Through the years of growing up I thought our love grew too
Till your heart longed for the things I couldn't buy for you
Slowly I could feel your love begin to fade and die
Then you found another much wealthier than I

Just a nickel piece of candy used to make your dreams come true
You'd hold my hand and tell me someday I'd love you

Little girl with golden curls and eyes for diamond rings
You grew up and soon forgot so many simple things
But I wonder if you're happy now 'cause when you pass me by
I think I see a tear drop in the corner of your eye

Just a nickel piece of candy used to make your dreams come true
You'd hold my hand and tell me someday I'd love you

    Isn't it so true! Life can be strange! i can relate to this song! The girl used to love me then someone came along that seemed to had it all and she cut off ties with me! but years later, she wanted to come back, only this time, it was too late for her!
