LAURYN HILL lyrics : "the sweetest thing"


The sweetest thing, I've ever known


Was like the kiss on the collarbone

Soft caress of happiness


The way you walk, your style of dress




I wish I didn't get so weak


Ooh baby, just to hear you speak


Makes me argue just to see

How much you're in love with me


See, like a queen, a queen upon her throne




It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know


It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know




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 dark skin tone




It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know


It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know




It was the, ah, I tried to explain


Ah, but baby, it's in vain




Speaking on my mother's phone


The touch that makes me think I'm grown

(You ain't grown)





Sweet prince of the ghetto, your kisses taste like amaretto

Intoxicating, oh, so intoxicating


How sad, how sad that all things come to an end


But then again, I'm, I'm not alone



It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know


It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know




Ah, sometimes watch you in your sleep

Ah, excuse me if I get to deep

(Ha)




It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know


It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know



It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know


It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know



It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know

It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest thing I know
