Lyrics Gruff Rhys – Candylion
Text:
A long time ago
In the kingdom of candy
A lion once roamed the streets and kept time
Howled on the hour
Whined on the minute
Roared every second day of the year
Roared every second day of the year
Candylion, candylion
Candylion, candylion
Dreams can come true
Nightmares can also
Opposites push and pull to the fore
Morph into flowers or a frozen winter
We’re flying in love
Or falling in hate
Candylion, candylion
Candylion, candylion
Candy, a penguin and carnation
Lion, a lemon and dalmatian
Candy and though I look for inspiration
Lion, still my favorite combinations’
Candylion, candylion
Candylion, candylion
