When It’s Sweet
[Verse]
Started so small I hardly noticed it
These little things I don’t like
Just turned my head and kept ignoring them
All these red flags and red lights
You in my face with all your foolishness
And I’m still so nonchalant
Surprise myself with all I’m fooling with
Just to get one thing I want
[Chorus]
‘Cause when it’s sweet
It’s so sweet
You wrap your loving arms around me
And I know I’m bound to lose
Eat up my mind or you
But when it’s sweet, it’s so sweet to me, yeah
[Verse]
Don’t wanna spend my time just wandering
When you won’t just say what you want and won’t let me go
My friends are all already done with it
But they don’t get to see what I see when the doors are closed
You in my head, why are you doing this
Why won’t you let me be free
It’s always when I think I’m through with this
That I crawl back on my knees
[Chours]
‘Cause when it’s sweet
It’s so sweet
You wrap your loving arms around me
And I know I’m bound to lose
Eat up my mind or you
‘Cause when it’s sweet, it’s so sweet to me
[Outro]
When it’s sweet
It’s so sweet
You wrap your loving arms around me
And I know I’m bound to lose
My mind, or lose you
But when it’s sweet, it’s so sweet to me
