Tindersticks - A Sweet Sweet Man lyrics

rate me

Sweet Sweet Man Pt. 1

--------------------------------------------

She sang for me, her heart on her tongue

She sang so pretty

She danced for me, her heart on her hips

She danced so fine

She said "Oh, a sweet sweet man like you,

What can I do for you?"

I said "A sweet sweet man like me

I can only bring you misery"

I lay awake that night, listening to her breathing

Thinking how strange it would be

If I awoke and she wasn't there

I could feel myself, feel myself changing

No longer me, I was only a part of her

I said "A sweet sweet man like me

I can only bring you misery"

So they put me down, back where I started from

But where I started seems so high

I start to climb

Sweet Sweet Man Pt. 2

---------------------------------------------------

I lay awake that night, listening to her breathing

Thinking how strange it would be

If I awoke and she wasn't there

I could feel myself, feel myself changing

No longer me, I was only a part of her

She said "Oh a sweet-sweet man like you

what can I do for you?"

I said "A sweet sweet man like me

I can only bring you misery"
