Sweetness Lyrics

She didn't love you much anyway, at least not how you want

And still you stay, you figured love was enough

Even unreturned

You met her on a Wednesday, sitting at the bar

So that should have been a warning, yet here you are

Yet here you are

All daddies have their demons, son, but no matter how dark they are

All I want in this sweet life is you happy where you are

is you happy where you are

She left you high and dry, all alone and broken, too

You tried to pick up the pieces, son, but I sure was hard on you

I sure was hard on you

But she gave you one good thing

You got your little girl. She looks just like your mama, son

God rest her soul, God rest her soul

All daddies have their demons, son, but no matter how dark they are

All I want in this sweet life is you happy where you are

Is you happy where you are

We've had our troubles, son, and now you're done with me

We may be merely players, boy, but we play for keeps

We play for keeps

Now it's your chance to get it wrong And the wheel has turned

It ain't gonna be easy, son, but it's the sweetness you earned

It's the sweetness you earned

Daddies have their demons, son, but no matter how dark they are

All I want in this sweet life is you happy where you are

Is you happy where you are
