Sweet Child O' Mine
Sheryl Crow · The Globe Sessions
He's got a smile
And it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as a bright blue sky
And now and then when I see his face
It takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Oh, ooh oh, sweet child 'o mine
Oh, oh oh oh sweet love of mine
He's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I'd hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
His hair reminds me
Of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by
Oh, ooh oh sweet child o' mine
Ooh oh oh, sweet love of mine
Oh, oh oh oh sweet child o' mine
Ohh, sweet love of mine
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
(Repeat)
Where do we go, sweet child
Where do we go now
Where do we go, sweet child
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Sweet child
Sweet child o' mine
And it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as a bright blue sky
And now and then when I see his face
It takes me away to that special place
And if I stared too long
I'd probably break down and cry
Oh, ooh oh, sweet child 'o mine
Oh, oh oh oh sweet love of mine
He's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I'd hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
His hair reminds me
Of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by
Oh, ooh oh sweet child o' mine
Ooh oh oh, sweet love of mine
Oh, oh oh oh sweet child o' mine
Ohh, sweet love of mine
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
(Repeat)
Where do we go, sweet child
Where do we go now
Where do we go, sweet child
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Where do we go now
Now, now, now, now, now, now, now
Sweet child
Sweet child o' mine
