The Sweetest Thing (I've Ever Known)

When I see you in the morning

With that old sleep still in your eyes

I remember all the laughter

And the tears we shared last night

And as we lie here

Just two shadows

In the light before the dawn

The sweetest thing

I've ever known

Is lovin' you

And I have never been afraid of losin'

And I have never wanted love to be a chain

I only know that when I'm with you

You're my sunshine, you're my rain

The sweetest thing

I've ever known

Is lovin' you

Now you and I

We're not children

We have both been loved before

We have given and we have taken

Many rides on troubled shores

But all the heartaches and temptations

Only made me love you more

The sweetest thing

I've ever known

Is lovin' you

And I have never been afraid of losin'

And I have never wanted love to be a chain

I only know that when I'm with you

You're my sunshine, you're my rain

The sweetest thing

I've ever known

Is lovin' you

The sweetest thing

I've ever known

Is lovin' you
