I wasn't always around When we felt so low down She was your shoulder you cried on When I weighed you down
Not pure like sugarcane Sweeter She was so sweet when you were alone Sweet and low Aftertaste like a real sad storm Sweeter She was so sweet when you were alone Sweet and low
When there is nothing left to say And her siren song fades away Maybe you'll crave a bitter sweet melody
Not pure like sugarcane Sweeter She was so sweet when you were alone Sweet and low She seems to heal the pain inside you Oh, inside you I was so mean when you were alone Sweet and low
Not pure like sugarcane Sweeter She was so sweet when you were alone Sweet and low She seems to soothe the pain inside Oh, inside you We were so sweet before we were alone Oh, so alone
Now you were the one that was so long gone Oh, how was I to know you didn't want me around? Was I a dreamer? Where you a lover? Was I fighter? Did you find something finer? Oh, what did she have? Love that I didn't Was she sweeter? Or finer lover?
