She's got a smile that it seems to me Reminds me of childhood memories Where everything was as fresh As the bright blue sky Now and then when I see her face She takes me away to that special place And if I stare too long I'd probably break down and cry Whoa-o-oh, sweet child o' mine Whoa-o-o-oh, sweet love of mine ♪ She'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 Her hair reminds me of a warm, safe place Whereas a child, I'd hide And pray for the thunder And the rain to quietly pass me by Whoa-o-oh, sweet child o' mine Whoa-o-o-oh, sweet love of mine ♪ (Sweet child o' mine) ♪ (Sweet love of mine) ♪ (Sweet child o' mine)
