Too Sweet

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 left, 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 wanna just 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 whilе in this world

I think I'll take my whiskey nеat

My coffee black in my bed at three

You're too sweet for me

You're too sweet for me

I'll take my whiskey neat

My coffee black in my bed at three

You're too sweet for me

You're too sweet for me

I aim low, I aim true and the ground's where I go

I work late where I'm free from the phone

And the job gets done, but you worry some, I know

But who wants to live forever, babe?

Treat your mouth as if it's Heaven's gate

The rest of you like you're the TSA

I wish that I could go along, babe, don't get me wrong

You know you're bright as the morning, soft as the rain

Pretty as a vine, sweet as a grape

If you can sit in a barrel, yeah, then maybe I'll wait

Until the day

I'd rather take my whiskey neat

My coffee black in my bed at three

You're too sweet for me

You're too sweet for me

I'll take my whiskey neat

My coffee black in my bed at three

You're too sweet for me

You're too sweet for me
