Sweets For My Sweet

(album: Up On The Roof: Songs From The Brill Building - 1993)

If you wanted that star
That shines so brightly
To match the stardust in your eyes
Darling,
I would chase that bright star nightly
And try to steal it from the sky

I would give
Sweets for my sweet,
Sugar for my honey
Your tasty kiss thrills me so
Sweets for my sweet,
Sugar for my honey
I'll never ever let you go

If you needed the dream
To keep you smiling
I'd tell the sandman you were blue
And I'd ask him
To keep that sand a-piling
Until your dreams had all come true
And I would give
Sweets for my sweet,
Sugar for my honey
Your tasty kiss thrills me so
Sweets for my sweet,
Sugar for my honey
I'll never ever let you go

If you wanted a love to last forever
Then I would send my love your way
And my love'd not only last forever
But forever and a day
'Cause I would give
Sweets for my sweet,
sugar for my honey
Your tasty kiss thrills me so
Sweets for my sweet,
Sugar for my honey
I'll never ever let you go

Sweets for my sweet,
Sugar for my honey
Your tasty kiss thrills me so
Sweets for my sweet,
Sugar for my honey
I'll never ever let you go
