Candy
Kate Bollinger
If ever you feel cold
I hope you’ll come on over
Hope you’ll think of me
Find comfort in the small things
If ever you feel ordinary
I hope you’ll think of what we’ve done
Hope you’ll think of my heart and yours
And think of all the big stuff
You’re sweet like candy
I knew it since you arrived
You make for lighter landings
I prepare for hard falls but am met with light every time
You feel to me like fiction
It never is quite real to me
You match my best depiction
Of dreams I hoped one day I might see
I waited through the winter
I hoped I’d catch some sign of spring
You came into my purview
Disrupted everything
You’re sweet like candy
I knew it since you arrived
You make for lighter landings
I prepare for hard falls but am met with light every time
If we don’t match up every time
If you leave me in the dark or outside
If some days your heart is not as full as mine
I will trust the beaten path to morning light
And hope to meet you there in some time
You’re sweet like candy
I knew it since you arrived
You make for lighter landings
I prepare for hard falls but am met with light every time
