Sweet and Low

I wasn't always around

When we felt so low down

She was your shoulder you cried on

When I weighed you down

Not pure like sugarcane

Sweeter

She was so sweet when you were alone

Sweet and low

Aftertaste like a real sad storm

Sweeter

She was so sweet when you were alone

Sweet and low

When there is nothing left to say

And her siren song fades away

Maybe you'll crave a bitter sweet melody

Not pure like sugarcane

Sweeter

She was so sweet when you were alone

Sweet and low

She seems to heal the pain inside you

Oh, inside you

I was so mean when you were alone

Sweet and low

Not pure like sugarcane

Sweeter

She was so sweet when you were alone

Sweet and low

She seems to soothe the pain inside

Oh, inside you

We were so sweet before we were alone

Oh, so alone

Now you were the one that was so low down

Oh, how was I to know you didn't want me around?

Was I a dreamer? Where you a lover?

Was I fighter? Did you find something finer?

Oh, what did she have? Love that I didn't

Was she sweeter? Or finer lover?
