THE FAST SONG

a.k.a. CANDY'S ROOM
a.k.a. WORLD OF DREAMS

Version 1

The night rushes in through the door
Kids running across the floor
Those guys aim it'll tear this town down
And blow it into the sea
Man that's okay with me
'Cause I don't care anymore
She, she who is everything
There's a fever that she brings
She's got everything, everything
I've got caught
Wasting my life so bad
Just looking for the facts
Sometimes I
Feel like I'm walking dazed
The blood rushes through my veins
I can hear it flow
She lives in a world of dreams come true
But she don't know like I do
Not like I do
Not like I do
'Cause I was nothing
Over and over again
Alone when the nights roll in, without her

She's a miracle in diamond rings
She's got men who bring her anything she wants
But they don't see
That what she wants is me
Oh and I want her so
I'll never let her go
Me, walking into the room
Alone when the nights roll in
Without her, without her, without her

Recorded sometime between Jun 1977 and Apr 1978 in Atlantic Studios / The Record Plant, New York City. Often referred just as CANDY'S ROOM, it is a mix between the slow CANDY'S BOY (lyrics) and the music of what would become CANDY'S ROOM on the Darkness On The Edge Of Town album. Check also version 2.
