[Skit]
You're always asking for a song
[Toddler] Will you follow the words with me?
Here it is at last
[Verse 1]
Yeah, listen
Barrel of tickles come
Paddle the riddled son
Up to our knees in summer
Now be said and done
It's all been expressed
The worry, the tenderness
And now my ferret
You're my jacket, you're my headrest
You're my daisy chain
Say again how your love will sling a circle around my soul
Chase away the strain
I'll believe it now
Even now
Now the sun is settling into the sea
Tugging the evening down
[Chorus]
You're the sweetest thing
I sing it like a dawn chorus, here it is at last
You touch everything
Oh yeah (sing, sing, sing)
Oh, the joy you bring
This colour spreads through the sky
Cos you're the sweetest thing to me
[Verse 2]
And I'm sorry my doubts stung us with the force of a [??]
I love the way your hands fall to your lap
I am tickled at the thought of the fact
That my fingertip fits in the dimple in small of your back
I know that can't part the seas
But we can bridge 'em with our two-part harmonies (right?)
I'll believe it now
Without a seed of doubt
Four months apart will pa** at the speed of sound
[Chorus]
You're the sweetest thing
I sing it like a dawn chorus, here it is at last
You touch everything
Oh yeah
Oh, the joy you bring
This colour spreads through the sky now the days pa**
Cos you're the sweetest thing to me
[Skit]
It was morning
And the new sun sparkled gold
Across the ripples of a gentle sea
[Verse 3]
Miss extraordinary
Tell a story please
We'll lie and laugh
For all the demons you fought for me
Between embroidered sheets
You're made for nurturing
A jumble of snuggles is contained in perfect skin
Juggling words with your arm and eyes closed
We froze the moment
To keep before the tides rose
And I believe it now
Nothing will beat us down
Even as you weep
The words are relieving now
[Chorus]
You're the sweetest thing
I sing it like a dawn chorus, here it is at last
You touch everything
Oh yeah
Oh, the joy you bring
I sing it like a dawn chorus, spread across the sea
Cos you're the sweetest thing to me
[Skit]
6000 miles away
Or wherever it is
See you for the next adventure
