The Story Behind This Song

County fair. Hand in mine. Caramel apples and that first kiss that tasted like pink sugar and forever. This song follows that love from the very beginning — young and laughing with all the time in the world — to barefoot on the beach, coconut skin, salt air, toes in the sand. And then the years move faster. Silver in the hair. Laugh lines and sorrow's tears. But when you smile? I'm still right there at that county fair. You still taste like cotton candy.

This isn't a love that melts. This is a love that stayed.

Lyrics

Walking at the county fairLaughing, hand in mineCaramel apples, and –

Cotton candy, candy, candy
Can’t get enough
Cotton candy, candy, candy
Give me that taste of love
Cotton candy, candy, candy
Pink sunset skies
Cotton candy, baby, baby
Stay with me tonight

Young and feeling like we had all the time
You kissed me slowLicking your lips You smiled and whispered
You taste like –

Cotton candy, candy, candy
Can’t get enough
Cotton candy, candy, candy
Give me that taste of love
Cotton candy, candy, candy
Pink sunset skies
Cotton candy, baby, baby
Stay with me tonight
Baby I love youAnd that is trueCotton candy…I want to grow old with you

Barefoot on the beachToes in the sandSalt in the airTime slips by with your hand
Sugar on your lips, tan lines low
Drip of sunshine, coconut skin
Every kiss melts my world away
Puffy pink clouds rolling in…
They look like…

Cotton candy, candy, candy
Can’t get enough
Cotton candy, candy, candy
Give me that taste of love
Cotton candy, candy, candy
Pink sunset skies
Cotton candy, baby, baby
Stay with me tonight
Baby I love youAnd that is trueCotton candy…I want to grow old with you

Coffee in the morning light
Coconut drinks at night
Wrapped up in that ocean air
You and I still feel so right
Now the years move faster
Silver in your hairour faces show
The time we’ve spent on this earth
From laugh lines to sorrow’s tearsyeah the years do show
You’ll always be my baby
Right there from the start
And when you smile, baby
I’m still at that county fair
You still taste like…

Cotton candy, candy, candy
Can’t get enough
Cotton candy, candy, candy
Give me that taste of love
Cotton candy, candy, candy
Pink sunset skies
Cotton candy, baby, baby
Stay with me tonight
Cotton candyPink sunset skiesCotton candyStill tastes like you and I
Baby I love youAnd that is trueYeah I loved you thenAnd I love you still
Cotton candy…I like growing old with you
Cotton candy, candy, candy… summer time sweet
Cotton candy, candy, candy… puffy clouds float by
Cotton candy, candy, candy… pink sunset skies
Cotton candy, candy, candy… every kiss feels right
Cotton candy…Me and you…
