Let Me Stand Next To Your Flower Lyrics

Wept as you walked away
I love you was all i could say
You're just like the voice in my head
You're making me wish i was dead

You're like candy to me
You're like candy to me
You're like candy to me
But candy's no good!

You love and you leave it's ok
I'm missing you more every day

You're like candy to me
You're like candy to me
You're like candy to me
But candy's no good!

Wept as you walked away
I love you was all i could say
You're just like the voice in my head
You're making me wish i was dead

You're like candy to me
You're like candy to me
You're like candy to me
But candy's no good!

You love and you leave it's ok
I'm missing you more every day

You're like candy to me
You're like candy to me
You're like candy to me
But candy's no good!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is like a dream about my ex... During a break-up.

I wept as you walked away... I love you was all I could say...

That desperation, just knowing you're gonna hurt so bad.

You're like Candy to me... And Candy's no good...

You want a hit, just want to feel better. But you just have to endure until it gets better.
