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 Refrain: Just a nickel piece of candy used to make my 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 Refrain: Just a Little girl with golden curls and eyes for diamond rings You grew up and soon forgot so many simple things 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 Refrain
