[Intro]
Candy, candy, candy
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Candy, candy (Brr)
[Verse 1]
Honey 아직도 고민해?
그래 넌 조심스럽게
Sugar, spice 가려보는데, uh
존중해 그 appetite, yeah
[Verse 2]
오묘한 이 tension 나도 싫지 않아
Any time, no limit
주고 싶어 something, something original
날 선택하길 잠시 기다렸지 yeah, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
특별한 내가 될게
손이 가 손이 가게 yeah
내게 중독될 텐데 (Yeah)
까다로운 너도 yeah
[Chorus]
Girl, I'm your candy, yeah (Candy, candy)
기가 막힌 chemistry, hey (Candy, candy)
어른스러운 cinnamon (Sweet), 좀 웃기는 mint (Sweet)
뭘 더 원해? (Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
Got me feeling like Pop Rocks, strawberry, bubble gum
주머니 속 향기 넘치면, all I want is you my love (Yep)
Candy (Candy, candy, candy, yeah), 넌 기분 좋아질 텐데
Tell me what you're waiting for
[Verse 3]
혼자 있는 캄캄한 상자 속
조금씩 난 금이 가버리지
그런 생각들 퇴색되는 flavor
넌 알아?
[Verse 4]
I say 투명하고 단순하고 싶어 (Make it simple)
너에게만 나를 맞춰가고 싶어 oh, yeah (가고 싶어, yeah)
I'll give you something original
넌 복잡한 사람인 걸 아니까
[Pre-Chorus]
뭐가 널 웃게 하니?
그게 나였으면 해
우울해하지 마 babe
One wish 네가 열어줘
[Chorus]
Girl, I'm your candy (I'm your candy, candy, candy)
기가 막힌 chemistry (Feel this chemistry, candy, candy)
어른스러운 cinnamon (Sweet), 좀 웃기는 mint (Sweet)
뭘 더 원해? (You know, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
Got me feeling like Pop Rocks, strawberry, bubble gum
주머니 속 향기 넘치면
All I want is you my love (All I want is you my love, yep)
Candy (Candy, candy, candy, yeah), 넌 기분 좋아질 텐데
Tell me what you're waiting for
[Bridge]
받아줄래 invitation
네 손은 다가와 있어
그 체온을 느껴
살짝 녹을 정도만
Girl, I'm your candy (So sweet)
조마조마한 시간
Don't you let me down
난 너 아닌 다른 선택이란 없잖아
Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na
Na-na-na, na, na, no
Girl, I can't wait anymore
네 옆에 내가 있게
[Chorus]
Girl, I'm your candy (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, candy, candy)
기가 막힌 chemistry (Candy, candy)
어른스러운 cinnamon (Do it so sweet)
좀 웃기는 mint
뭘 더 원해? (더 원해, 원해, 원해, 원해, 원해, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah)
Got me feeling like Pop Rocks, strawberry, bubble gum
주머니 속 향기 넘치면
All I want is you my love (Yep)
Candy (Candy, candy, candy, yeah)
넌 기분 좋아질 텐데
Tell me what you're waiting for
[Outro]
Yeah, oh
Woah, oh, yeah (Candy, candy)
Woah
Tell me what you're waiting for
