I've been hurt so many ways
I’ve cried so many times
It gets hard to see the truth
After falling for the lies
So when he said his love was real
I didn't dare believe
He told me love was like
He told me love was like
A big rock candy mountain
A big rock candy mountain
That's how he made love sound
One of these days he said you’ll see
Nothing's as good as love can be
It's good like a candy mountain
A big rock candy mountain
Now everybody wants to find
A love that never ends
And I would like a little sweetness
To help my heartache mend
So when he says his love is real
I'm ready to believe
He told me love was like
He told me love was like
A big rock candy mountain
A big rock candy mountain
That's how he made love sound
One of these days he said you'll see
Nothing's as good as love can be
It's good like a candy mountain
A big rock candy mountain
I’m not afraid of falling
From this height
The only place I’m falling
Is in love for all my life
So when he says his love is real
I'm ready to believe
He told me love was like
He told me love was like
A big rock candy mountain
A big rock candy mountain
That’s how he made love sound
One of these days he said you'll see
Nothing's as good as love can be
It's good like a candy mountain
A big rock candy mountain
Good like a candy mountain
A big rock candy mountain
(One of these days)
Good like a candy mountain
A big rock candy mountain
(One of these days)
