Marvin Gaye - Sweet Thing lyrics

rate me

Oh you don't always say the words I wanna hear, no baby

To me you're really saying something dear

Oh you're not the kind of girl to win a beauty prize

Just your smile, girl, lets me know where your beauty lies

Makes me realize you're a sweet thing, you're a sweet thing baby

Listen honey, you can't seem to do the things I ask you to

Oh but I can't help but love the way you do the things you do

Oh you're not the kind of girl that men just can't resist

There's a certain something in your kiss, oh makes me wanna sing

Oh you're a sweet thing, you are a sweet thing baby

Oh there may be a lot of things you'll never be

Ooo but the little things you are, they mean everything to me

So love, don't ever try and be all mankind's ideal

Just stay the way you are right now girl, truthful and for real

You've got your appeal

Oh you're a sweet thing, honey you're a sweet thing

You're sweeter than wine, that's why I'm glad you're mine

Baby, sweeter than a rose, ooo so my love just grows and grows

...and fade
