Too Sweet Lyrics

It can't be said I'm an early bird

It's ten o'clock before I say a word

Baby, I can never tell

How do you sleep so well?

You keep telling me to live right

To go to bed before the daylight

But then you wake up for the sunrise

You know you don't gotta pretend, baby, now and then

Don't you just wanna wake up, dark as a lake?

Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze?

If you're drunk on life, babe, I think it's great

But while in this world, I'm just tasting fate

I take my whiskey neat,

My coffee black and my bed at three

You're too sweet for me,

You're too sweet for me

Maybe I’ll catch the dawn in your arms,

Maybe we’ll laugh as the quiet charms

Speak the secrets midnight holds,

While the world outside just breaks the mold

But is it wrong to love the dark?

To feel the shadow's gentle spark?

You want the morning stretching wide,

But I find magic in the night, oh I abide

So don’t you just wanna wake up, dark as a lake?

Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze?

If you're drunk on life, babe, I think it's great

But while in this world, I’m just tasting fate

I take my whiskey neat,

My coffee black and my bed at three

You're too sweet for me,

You're too sweet for me

So I'll take the slow road, you can take the fast,

Hold on tight, let’s make this moment last

In the sweet surrender of our sleepy fight,

Let’s find a rhythm in the fading light

Yeah, I take my whiskey neat,

My coffee black and my bed at three

You're too sweet for me,

You're too sweet for me.
