SWEET THING
Such a sweet thing, when I see the sun rise over your land
How am I suppose to guide you through things I don’t understand
Don’t walk in my footsteps, walk ahead and make your own
But know that through,

Cut fingers, kicked toes, you’re never alone

It’s such a grey day, when I see the tear well in your eyes
And all I have are these two arms and a worn out lullabye
Don’t stand in my shadow, let the sun warm a place of your own
And know that through

Cut fingers kicked toes your never alone

I’ve learnt to tumble when I fall
But all these scars I bare, hold lessons for us all
But when I look at all these things I do
I’ve never seen anyone more beautiful than you

It’s such a sweet thing, when I see the sun rise over your land
Hey everyday’s a magic box to hold within your hand
Don’t walk in my footsteps, walk ahead and make your own
But know that through

Cut fingers, kicked toes your never alone.
