Sweet Thing- Jeff Buckley

"Pretty babe, I will not remember that I even felt pain"

My boyfriend just delivered some potentially bad news.  I could really take some ice cream now.  Or anything to eat away my emotions.....seems soy milk will do the trick.

Leave it to Jeff Buckley to both calm me and pull at my heart strings.  I think this song is so beautiful.  One of my favorite of his. I understand it is a Van Morrison song, but Jeff really makes it his own.

And I will stroll the merry way and jump the hedges first
And I will drink the clear clean water for to quench my thirst
And I shall watch the ferry-boats and they'll get high
On a bluer ocean against tomorrow's sky
And I will never, ever grow so old again
And we will walk and talk in gardens all misty wet with rain
Oh sweet thing, sweet thing
Oh my, well
Sweet thing

And I will drive my chariot down your streets and cry
Well, it's me, I'm dynamite and I don't know why

And you will hold me strongly in your arms again
Pretty babe, I will not remember that I even felt the pain
And we will walk and talk in gardens all misty wet with rain
And I will never, ever grow so old again.
Oh sweet thing

Oh my sweet thing, sweet thing

And I will raise my hand up into the midnight sky

And count all the lights that shining in your eye

Just to dig it all and not to question well that's just fine

Just to dig it all and never wonder well that’s just fine

And I'll be satisfied not to read between the lines

And we will walk and talk in gardens all misty wet with rain

We will, someday

And we, you and me, walk and talk in gardens all misty wet with rain

You and me, we will walk

and talk in gardens all misty wet with rain

And we shall walk in gardens all misty wet with rain

And we shall walk in gardens all misty wet with rain

We shall walk and talk in gardens all misty wet with rain

And we will never, ever grow so old again.

Oh sweet thing, oh sweet thing

Sweet, oh you know we will, oh you know we will

Remember the day when I held your hand

The look in my eyes only you can understand

Remember when we held each other soft and low

How nothing could ever be that strong

Sleep tonight with dreams as sweet as angels wing

Your dreams will bring you sweeter things

Sweet sweet sweet thing, oh sweet thing

Don’t, don’t, don’t you cry

Come here and let me tell you, let me tell you how much I love you

Sweet thing, oh sweet thing

Oh sweet thing, oh sweet thing

You know we will walk and talk in gardens all misty wet with rain

And will never grow so old again

Oh sweet thing

sweet sweet thing, sweet thing, sweet thing

Oh my sweet thing
