The Sweetest Thing - Lauryn Hill
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 Ooo, 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 touching makes me think I`m grown, (you ain`t grown) Sweet prince of the ghetto Your kisses taste like armoretto 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
