Sweet Guy

Lyrics

In the morning, we trash the bed
 You 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'll 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'll 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, I'm 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, baby, forgive me please"
 I wake up aching from your touch
 I wake up tender
 Then I look in your eyes, the way you smile
 I'm a fool, I'm hypnotized
 One thing I'll 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?
 Mm-mm
 Turn so mean
 I wanna know
 Mm-mm
 Might be your daddy
 Must be your daddy
