Lyrics - From The Candy Store On The Corner

From The Candy Store On The Corner
Recorded by Dickie Rock & The Miami Showband
1964 - Piccadilly 7N35202 / Twenty Flight Rock

From the candy store on the corner
To the chapel on the hill,
Two young lovers are longing to go there
And they dream some day they will;

For their hearts are in tune with a love-song
Every promise they make they mean
For true love is a treasure of treasures
When you're only seventeen.

At seventeen it's a thrill
To dream some day they will
Walk hand in hand from the candy store
To the chapel on the hill,
Walk hand in hand from the candy store
To the chapel on the hill.

(Original recording by Tony Bennett, 1956)
