Lyrics
SWEET THING - Suzanne Vick (© 2010)
As I go walking through the valley of my memory
It's cold and lonely and the shadows make it hard to see
I'm full of fear and emptiness and suddenly
You are near and there is light all around me
And I remember all the wild & crazy things we done
Yes, I remember all days of rain and wind and sun
I remember the day you came to say goodbye
With a smile and a sparkle in your eye, you said...
Sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-nah, sha-na-na-na-na-na-nah (3x)
Sweet thing, I will always love you
Before I knew it, the months and days were flying by
Then you were gone and inside my heart and soul was cryin'
I know it's a fact of life that time will pass, seasons change
But just remember what I said to you my friend, I said
Sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-nah, sha-na-na-na-na-na-nah (3x)
Sweet thing, I will always love you
Sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-nah, sha-na-na-na-na-na-nah (3x)
For you shine like the stars in the sky à SOLO
And when the world is too much for me
So rough and heavy I can hardly speak
I remember how we sang our song
Bright and clear and at the top of our lungs we sang....
Sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-nah, sha-na-na-na-na-na-nah (3x)
Sweet thing, I will always...
Sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-nah, sha-na-na-na-na-na-nah (3x)
For you shine, yes, you shine...
