When you tell me that you love me When you hold me tight Wrapped around me like a blanket In the womb of the night I lean on that sweetness We got our priorities Though I hate to admit it It's all I need Good conversation Stimulates the mind A long walk in the country Any weather's always fine I lean on that sweetness We got our priorities Though I hate to admit it It's all I need Mmmm, hot cup of coffee Dry hay in the barn Throw another red oak timber
In the fire to keep us warm I lean on that sweetness We got our priorities Though I hate to admit it It's all I need Now I got a strong ambition One that you can't see To see the world and love what's in it Live my life with honesty Sell it all for money So everybody knows your name In the end there ain't no secrets Empires fall with naked shame I lean on that sweetness Your eyes, the stars, the seven seas Though I hate to admit it It's all I need
