Van Morrison Sweet Thing song lyrics

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 bluer ocean

Against tomorrow's sky

And I will never grow so old again

And I will walk and talk in gardens all wet with rain

Ohhoow sweet thing, sweet thing, hey yeah

My, my, my, my, my sweet thing

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 strongly in your arms again

And I will not remember that I even felt the pain

We shall walk and talk in gardens all misty and wet with rain

And I will never, never, never grow so old again

Ohhooow sweet thing, sweet thing, oohoow sweet thing

My, my, my, my, my sweet thing

And I will raise my hand up into the nighttime sky

And count the stars that's shining in your eye

And 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 I will never, ever, ever, ever grow so old again

Ohoow sweet thing, ohoow sugar baby, sweet thing

Sugar-baby with your champagne eyes

And your saint-like smile
