Chicago Soul Jazz Collective and Dee Alexander - Sweet Things

Sweet Things

I know this world is full of sour things
This world is crazy full of sad things too
I'd love to shield you from everything sad
But only a fool would promise that to you

cll I can offer is a hand to hold
My romantic gestures are simple and few
There will always be sad things to color you blue
But in between sad and sour I promise to try and bring you

Sweet things
I want to bring you sweet things

The wall of China is a glorious wonder
They built it high and strong to keep evil at bay
They must have toiled for a million days
But when they were through they knew
Evil got his ass in anyway

I'd love to build that wall all around you
To keep you safe so you would never know harm
I have enough foolish notions to drown us both in seven oceans
But at the end of the day I know
The best I can do for you is bring you some

Sweet things
I want to bring you sweet things

If you get out of bed in the morning
You're asking for trouble
This world was made to break you in two
But when you're at the end
cnd you feel like running
Just reach out for me
Cause you know I'm coming to bring you

Sweet things
I want to bring you sweet things

I know this world will try to break you down
There are sad and sour things everywhere you turn
This world will bend your mind and push your heart around
But I want to bring you to the loving side of town
cnd give you these

Sweet things
I want to bring you sweet things
