Just like Candy

Has anyone else noticed that we compare love and relationships to sweets. Hence, the songs Candy Rain by Soul For Real and Candy by Cameo. What about love makes us think of something sweet and tasty?

"It's like candy, I can feel it when you walk, even when you talk, it takes over me...I wanna know can you feel it too, the way I do. The stuff is starting now, its the same feeling, I always seem to get around you." This is the way love is supposed to feel. It's supposed to make us feel intoxicated, full and overwhelmed with affection and emotion.

In love do you ever dream of, candy coated rain drops? Don't laugh, this is serious! When we think of love, isn't this the way we think? We think of bouquets of flowers, hugs and kisses (the chocolate one's too), teddy bears, holding hands and all the other mushy stuff that we want boxed up with our love.

Yet; some where in between work and school, family, friends and our own selfishness we loose these warm fuzzies that we had when our love began. Whether it be from petty misunderstandings to blow-out arguments, the fun that we shared in love begins to fade and we become serious, defensive and annoyed with each other, and sadly that love gets buried underneath it all.

Think about it, we give so much of ourselves, if our lovers asked for the moon, wouldn't we make a call to NASA? Be honest with yourself for a minute...we would. If we truly love the way we think we do, why aren't we dreaming of candy coated rain drops, we say that we never thought we'd find that perfect person, but when their in our grasp, we let go, instead of fighting for what our heart says is right.

Candy rain sounds so nice (I know its corny), if it rained chocolate kisses we'd all be happy campers. "My love, do you ever dream of, candy coated raindrops? You're the same, you're my candy rain."
