You gave me candy after class
A tiny gift that made me laugh
The wrapper shined, I kept it near
A little treasure I hold dear
Your smile was sweeter than the taste
My heart began to race
It’s silly, but it feels so true
Every color reminds me of you
Candy wrapper, shiny and small
But it’s the sweetest gift of all
First love wrapped in silver light
I’ll keep it safe every night
The sugar melted, the moment stayed
A simple memory love has made
I hear your voice, the world turns bright
Like fireworks on a summer night
It’s silly, but it feels so true
Every color reminds me of you
Candy wrapper, shiny and small
But it’s the sweetest gift of all
First love wrapped in silver light
I’ll keep it safe every night
Even when the candy’s gone
Your love is what I linger on
Candy wrapper, shiny and small
But it’s the sweetest gift of all
First love wrapped in silver light
I’ll keep it safe every night
Candy wrapper…
My first delight.
