Keep Sweet

[Verse 1]
I'm afraid I'll never love another
And I'm ashamed, I'm to blame, a bad lover
You went away, called it a day altogether
It's a strain, but my heart's getting tougher
I'd like to think someday it might recover
There's a delay, don't want to stray forever

[Chorus]
Keep sweet is what they're telling me to be, it's not easy
Keep sweet, what if I disagree, even if I really see
Why you can't be with me
Ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
I pretend when I know the real answer
You often said that I was a good dancer
I won't complain, it's just a shame we're getting older
Which old thoughts when I think of the summer
We flew away to see what we'd discover
A hurricane whisked you away to another

[Chorus]
Keep sweet is what they're telling me to be, it's not easy
Keep sweet, what if I disagree, even if I really see
Upbeat is what they're telling me to be to stay carefree
Delete, but I've no remedy
Even if I really see why you can't be with me
