Sweet Thing lyrics - Hozier

(originally by Van Morrison)

I will stroll the merry way and jump the hedges first

I will drink clear clean water for to quench my thirst

I'll go watch the ferry-boats and I'll get high

On the bluer ocean against the waters sky

I will walk and talk in gardens all wet with rain

I will never ever ever grow so old again

Oooh good God you're a sweet thing

Oooh good God you're a sweet thing

I shall drive my chariot down - your streets and cry

Hey it's me tonight I'm dynamite and I don't know why

You shall take me strongly in your arms again

And I still wonder if I ever felt the pain

We shall walk and talk in gardens all misty wet with rain

And I shall never, ever, ever grow so cold again

Oooh good God you're a sweet thing

Oooh good God you're a sweet thing

I shall raise my hand up into the night, to the night sky

And count the stars that are shining in your eye

Just to dig it all and not to wonder that would be fine

You're satisfied not to read in between the lines

Oooh good God you're a sweet thing

Oooh good God you're a sweet thing

Oooh my my my my my sweet thing

Oooh good God.
