Lyrics
Sweet As You
Taste the envy
Your riches offend me
The greed and those silent
Are complicit to a tyrant
All I can do is comfort you
And you'll see when you hold me
Can I sing
a melody just like the springtime
Can I make a little rhyme
and keep it all in time
and leave it all in time
Won't you be mine?
Cause you know
Some things don't go just the way that you might have planned
So I'll be your man
Will you stay
until tomorrow presents us a new day?
Will you tell me what to say
to make them go away
so we can sing and play
Won't that be fine?
Cause I know
That nothing compares
to a moment we share that is true
It's all sweet as you
And We know
That love doesn't grow
if you think that you can just simply can
Live a lie
and take a backseat and don't even try
to head the children cry
Be human!
Oh, sweet as you
Let me go
if I fail you or take you for granted
That's not who I am
Take my hand
make a stand with me don't give a damn
what the others won't do
it's all sweet as you
Awake resilience
resistance,all the things that are good
Take the kindness
to the blindness and lead them away
And then maybe they'll stay
Oh, it's all sweet as you
