Sweet Thing Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I will love you anyway, even if you can not stay
I think you are the one for me
Here is where you ought to be
I just wanna satisfy ya
'Cause you're not mine and I can't deny it
Don't you hear me talkin', baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy

[Chorus]
Whoa, sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Whoa, sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Yes, you are

[Verse 2]
I wish you were my lover, but you act so undercover
Love you child my whole life long, be it right or be it wrong
I'm mre than what you make me, baby
Don't walk away, don't be so shady
Don't want your mind, don't want your money
These words I say, they may sound funny, but...

[Chorus]
Whoa, sweet thing, yeah
Don't you know you're my everything?
Whoa, sweet thing
Don't you know you're my everything?
Yes, you are
Yes, you are, baby

[Verse 3]
You are my heat, you are my fire
You make me weak with strong desire
Love you, child, my whole life long
Be it right or be it wrong
I just want to satisfy ya
'Cause you're not mine, I can’t deny it
Don't you hear me talkin', baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy

[Bridge]
You're my heat, you are my fire
You're not mine, I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talkin', baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy
You're my heat, you are my fire
You're not mine, I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talkin', baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy
You're my heat, you are my fire
You're not mine, I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talkin', baby? ('Cause you're my sweet thing)
Love me now or I'll go crazy (Sweet thing)
You're my heat, you are my fire
You're not mine, I can't deny ya
Don't you hear me talkin', baby?
Love me now or I'll go crazy (Talk to me, talk to me, baby)

[Outro]
C'mon, 'cause you're my sweet thing
I don't care what you do to me
Oh, no, no, no, no, no
You're mine, you're mine
