Candice Rickelle Glover (born November 22, 1989) is an American R&B singer who won the twelfth season of the American Idol. Glover is the first female winner of the show since Jordin Sparks won in 2007, the fourth African-American winner in American Idol history and the only winner to have auditioned three times before being cast for the live shows. Her debut album Music Speaks is scheduled for release on February 18, 2014, after being pushed back from October and July 2013. Glover says she wants to be a counselor to help girls through what she went through as a teenager. Nicki Minaj broke down in tears after Glover’s performance of “Next to Me”, saying that Glover has gotten so much more confidence during her time on the show. Glover said she would never wear a dress on Idol, but she eventually wore one during her performance of “Somewhere”, “You’ve Changed” by Billie Holiday and the finale. After this, girls began tweeting her saying she was their inspiration and that she made them feel more confident. Her musical influences include Christina Aguilera, Jazmine Sullivan and Brandy. In 2011, Sullivan retweeted Glover’s YouTube cover of “Chasing Pavements” by Adele and called it “amazing”. Glover once again performed this song on the finale of American Idol. Wikipedia®.
Candice Glover – Cried
Candice Glover – Cried Lyrics:
There’s nothing left
‘Cause you took it all
I hope to fly
But you make me fall
And I’m tired, oh I
I kept a smile for all those years
But I’m so sick of finding my tears
I’m so tired, oh I
And I’m, am I waiting?
No more holding it in
So I cried, and I cried
And I cried, and I cried
So I cried, for all of the pain that you brought
And I cried, for all of the heart ache you caused
I tried to be the girl that never complains
But holding it in is driving me insane
So I cried, oh I cried
I’m on a limb
And I’m ’bout to jump
I gave it all
But you gave me none
And I’m tired, oh I
Down inside, feel it coming now
I wanna but I kissed, I’m now
And I’m tired, oh I
And I’m, am I waiting?
No more holding it in
So I cried, and I cried
And I cried, and I cried
This is for every time I let it go
All of the nights I spent alone
It’s been too hard to hold back the pain
So like the cloud let it fall like the rain
Yes I’m gon’ make a sound
‘Cause I’m crying out loud
So I cried, for all of the pain that you brought
And I cried, for all of the heart ache you caused (caused)
I tried to be the girl that never complains
But holding it in is driving me insane
So I cried, and I cried
And I cried, and I cried
I Cried, and I cried
And I cried, and I cried
I Cried, and I cried
And I cried, and I cried.
