Lyrics
Sweets For My Sweet
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If you wanted that star that shines so brightly
To match the star dust in your eyes
Darlin', I would chase that bright star nightly
And try to steal it from the skies
'cause I would give sweets for my sweet, sugar for my honey
Your perfect kiss thrills me so
Sweets for my sweet, sugar for my honey
I'll never ever let you go
And if you needed a dream to keep you smiling
I'll tell the sandman you were blue
And I'd ask him to keep that sand a-piling
Till your dreams would come true
'cause I would give sweets for my sweet, sugar for my honey
Your perfect kiss thrills me so
Sweets for my sweet, sugar for my honey
I'll never ever let you go
If you wanted a love to last forever
Then I would send my love your way
And my love would only last forever
But forever and a day
