Dawn Candida Letras:
The stars won't come out,
If they know that you're about,
'Cause they couldn't match,
The glow of your eyes.
And, oh, who am I?
Just an ordinary guy,
Tryin' hard
To win the first prize.

Woh-oh, Candida,
We could make it together.
The further from here, girl, the better,
Where the air is fresh and clean.

Hooh-hoooh, Candida,
Just take my hand and I'll lead ya,
I promise life will be sweeter,
And it says so in my dreams.

The future is bright,
The gypsy told me so last night.
Said she saw our children
Playing in the sunshine.
And there was you and I
In a house, baby, no lie.
And all these things were yours,
And they were mine.

Woh, my Candida,
We could make it together.
The further from here, girl, the better,
Where the air is fresh and clean.

Hooh-hoooh, Candida,
Just take my hand and I'll lead ya,
[Más Letras en es.mp3lyrics.org/dMn]
I promise life will be sweeter,
And it says so in my dreams.

[Instrumental break.]

And, oh, who am I?
Just an ordinary guy,
You know I'm tryin' hard,
To win the first prize.

Oh, my Candida,
We could make it together.
The further from here, girl, the better,
Where the air is fresh and clean.

Woh, my Candida,
[Fade.]
Just take my hand and I'll lead ya,
I promise that life will be sweeter,
And it says so in my dreams.

[1] The first recording of this song was credited to "Dawn, featuring Tony
Orlando." After it became a hit, subsequent albums were credited to "Tony
Orlando & Dawn." Other covers include: Ray Coniff, Owen Gray, Tony Orlando
(solo), The Pioneers, Bruce Ruffin and Andy Williams.]

[2] In early 1970, Tony Orlando received a call from Bell Records producer,
Hank Medress, requesting that he lay down a lead vocal over a demo recorded
by a Detroit-based act called Dawn. The duo, consisting of vocalists Telma
Hopkins and Joyce Vincent, had previously backed up singers including Edwin
Starr, Johnnie Taylor, Freda Payne and others. According to legend, Orlando
never even met either singer until well after the record, "Candida," became a
massive hit, rising to number three on the singles charts.]
