Sweet GuyIn the morning we trash the bedYou bring me coffee black and boiling Then we start up again and the coffee goes cold I wake up drinking from your lips Kisses warm and tender And I'd give up the world just to see you smile One thing I will never understand (It's become my problem) And it's something that's right out of my hands (My hands are clean) What makes such a sweet guy turn so mean? I went to town with a moody man A handsome Dr. Jekyll He was right by my side turning into Mr. Hyde I ran for cover but I ran too slow I was stitched by strangers And they shook their heads that somebody could do the things you did One thing I will never understand (It's become my problem) And it's something that's right out of my hands (My hands are clean) What makes such a sweet guy turn so mean? I must be mad, I must be crazy Everyone tells me so All of my life I've seen it coming, Now I'm facing the wall, waiting for the blow In the morning you kiss my head You say it was somebody else, you weren't feeling yourself Now you're down on your knees Begging me "Baby, baby, forgive me please" I wake up aching from your touch? Every muscle tender? Then I look in your eyes, the way you smile And I'm hypnotized One thing I will never understand? (It's become my problem)? And it's something that's right out of my hands (My hands are clean)? What makes such a sweet guy turn so mean? |
