Sweet Thing (2006 Remaster) - The Waterboys

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 blue ocean

Against tomorrow's sky

And I will walk and talk

In gardens all wet with rain

And I will never grow so old again

Oh sweet thing sweet thing

My my my my my

And I shall drive my chariot down

Your streets and cry

Hey it's me I'm dynamite

And I don't know why

And you shall take me warm

In your arms again

And I will not remember

That I ever felt the pain

And I will walk and talk

In gardens all wet with rain

And never ever ever

Ever ever get so old again

Ooh

Sweet thing

Yeah yeah yeah

Sweet thing

My my my

And I will raise my hand up

Into the night time sky

And count the stars there

Shining in your eyes

Just to dig it all an' not to wonder

That's just fine

And I'll be satisfied not to read

In between the lines

And I will walk and talk

In gardens all wet with rain

And never ever ever ever

Ever get so old again

Sweet thing

Sugar-baby with your saint-like smile

And your champagne eyes

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take this broken wing and learn to fly

All your life you were just waiting

For this moment to arrive

Blackbird singing in the dead of night

Take your sunken eyes learn to see

All your life you were only waiting

For this moment to be free

You were only waiting

For this moment to be free

You were only waiting

For this moment to be free

You were only waiting

For this moment to be free

You were only waiting

For this moment to be free
