Candies and chocolate tarts
Satisfy your stomach
But only the grin of a certain girl
Can satisfy your heart

Were all that you could share
She said you were like a brother
And that was the first of the walls
Was she a little too sweet?
Did you grasp at false hope?
Sugar piled miles high
It was really quite a feat
You wilted in the oven's heat
You never could tell apart
Flirting and friendliness
Was I a little too sweet?
I'm sorry I broke your heart
