So Like Candy

Here lies the powder and perfume The pretty clothes are scattered 'round the room And it's so like Candy Here lies the lipstick and the face The colored tablets keep it all in place And it's so like Candy, so like Candy What did I do to make her go? Why must she be the one That I have to love so like Candy? Here lies a picture of a girl Her arms are tight around that lucky guy And it's so like Candy And in her eyes a certain look I thought I'd seen the last of long ago And it's so like Candy, so like Candy What did I do to make her go? Why must she be the one That I have to love so I remember the day that the picture was taken We were so happy then but that's so like Candy She seemed so sweet to me I was mistaken Oh no not that again but that's so like Candy She just can't face the day so she turns and melts away Here lie the records that she scratched And on the sleeve I find a note attached And it's so like Candy "My darling dear, it's such a waste" She couldn't say, "Goodbye" but "I admire your taste" And it's so like Candy, so like Candy So like Candy So like Candy So like Candy
