about

The first Eiscafe song. I saw the title on a girl I knew's Livejournal back in 2003 and wrote it down knowing it would make a perfect POP song.

This was all recorded very quickly one January afternoon 2011 in Allston, MA while I was racing to make it back to Connecticut before a blizzard set in.

lyrics

QUITTING YOU IS HARDER THAN CANDY

Quitting you is harder than candy
But this time I’m leaving baby
My sweet tooth is loose from your sugar now

Although I give you cavities
Without me you lose all sense of gravity
Your sticky lips are stuck with me now

And the nighttime lasts/is too long
And the nighttime just seems wrong without you (what can a girl do?)

Although you give me tummyaches
Leaving you is a big mistake
A sugar rush shouldn’t end in heartbreak now

Quittin’ me is harder than candy
So come wrap your lips around me
Quitting me won’t taste as good as this

And the nighttime lasts/is too long
And the nighttime just seems wrong without you

Quitting you is harder than candy Quitting you is harder than candy Quitting you is harder than quitting candy
