Sweetest Thing Songtext
von Lauryn Hill

The sweetest thing I′ve ever known
Was like the kiss on the collarbone
The soft caress of happiness
The way you walk, your style of dress
I wish I didn't get so weak
Oooh, baby, just to hear you speak
Makes me argue just to see
How much you′re in love with me

See like the queen, queen, upon her throne
It was the sweet, sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I've known
It was the sweet, sweetest thing I've known


I get mad when you walk away (don′t walk away)
So I tell you leave, when I mean stay
Warm as the sun dipped in black
Fingertips on the small of my back
More valuable than all I own
Like your precious, precious, precious, precious, baby, baby, dark skin tone

It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I′ve known
It made me say, it made me say yoh uh-uh
I, I tried to explain
Ah... but baby, it's in vain

It was the sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I′ve known
Told you it was the sweet, sweet, sweetest place I've known
