Candy Tree
Escape to Wonderland: Unveiling the Enchanting Tale Behind 'Candy Tree'
Lyrics
There's a place I know
Introduction to a familiar place
Where the children go
Reference to the destination of children
Every summer's night.
Setting the scene on summer nights
They run as fast they can
Children's energetic movement
Behind the Raven-Man...
Introduction of the mysterious figure, Raven-Man
Who shall he invite ?
Question about who Raven-Man will invite
The rather awkward girl
Description of an awkward girl
With the ragged curls
Details about the girl's appearance
Much to her delight !
Expression of the girl's joy
"Come with me to the candy tree
Invitation to join Raven-Man at the candy tree
You need to free your mind
Encouragement to liberate the mind
Come with me to the candy tree
Reiteration of the invitation
And leave it all behind"
Encouragement to leave troubles behind
Well it's an underhand
Reference to a deceptive wonderland
Kind of wonderland
Description of the wonderland as underhand
She can't find the door;
Difficulty in finding an exit
Because he's keeping her as a prisoner,
Imprisonment metaphorically depicted
Lost forevermore.
Suggestion of being lost indefinitely
And now the Queen is red
Introduction of a red Queen character
And she wants her head
Queen's desire for justice
Just to keep the law.
Mention of the need to uphold the law
"Come with me to the candy tree...
Repetition of the invitation to the candy tree
