Sweet Darlin’

[Verse]
Taking the back seat to her heart
'Cause he say it’s just too far, sweet darlin'
He stole her cookies out the jar, sweet darlin'
And now his kisses taste like tar, sweet darlin'
Aw, aw, aw
Her tender heart just skips a beat
Each time she moves her feet, sweet darlin'
She heard the gun shots up the street, sweet darlin'
And now she can't fall fast asleep, sweet darlin'
Aw, aw, aw

[Chorus]
And now she's gone
Sweet darlin', oh-oh
Losing herself in the city scene
Into the night
Sleepless her eyes
Can't take the weight of what's in her mind
It's all the time

[Verse]
Taking the back seat to her heart
'Cause he say it’s just too far, sweet darlin'
He stole her cookies out the jar, sweet darlin'
And now his kisses taste like tar, sweet darlin'
Aw, aw, aw
Her tender heart just skips a beat
Each time she moves her feet, sweet darlin'
She heard the gun shots up the street, sweet darlin'
And now she can't fall fast asleep, sweet darlin'
Aw, aw, aw

[Chorus]
And now she's gone
Sweet darlin', oh-oh
Losing herself in the city scene
Into the night
Sleepless her eyes
Can't take the weight of what's in her mind
It's all the time

[Bridge]
She said, "I gotta go
Yeah, I gotta breathe, breathe, breathe
Well, if you wanna stay (If you wanna stay)
I can't make you leave (Can't make you leave)
She said, "I gotta go
Yeah, I gotta breathe, breathe, breathe
Well, if you wanna stay
I can't make you leave (No, no, no)

[Outro]
I knew this sweet darlin’ was really raw in spirit
But all the dudes she ran with
They crushed her, now she fearin'
Not God, but she fears the street life, creep nightly
Urban sight see, you know how life be
Rightfully so, went after the doe
But when the cops came all she had fell to the floor
"United we stand, divided we fall"
Yeah, that don't mean a thing when you got nothing at all
"United we stand, divided we fall"
Don't mean a thing, when you ain’t got nothing at all
"United we stand, divided we fall"
That don't mean a thing, when you ain’t got nothing at all
