Soft and sweet Soft and sweet Soft and sweet Get on Soft and sweet (even in Paris I was sad) Soft and sweet (she said she won't never leave my side) Soft and sweet (raised her like my son) Shine on me like sun Sometimes I say I hate my life I'm only joking I'll be alright (raised her like my son) I know I'm, better I'll be alright But if you call and I don't answer Don't be scared, tiny dancer I'll be alright, I'll be alright Last night I almost crashed my car Saw your name glowing in the dark You thought of me in the nick of time It's almost morning in New York And it's been a minute since we spoke You talk to me like you're by my side Don't talk like that she said, she said She said it makes her sad, ah ah Don't talk like that she said, "Be glad" (raised her like my son) (Shine on me like sun) Don't talk like that she said, she said She said it makes her sad, ah ah Don't talk like that she said, "Be glad" "'Cause you got what you have" She said, "I pray for your vocal chords" It's no easy job to connect (raised her like my son) Such a hectic heart with such a heavy head Such a heavy heart with such a hectic head Felt when it dropped, heavy Pit of my stomach, belly Always there for me, deli It'll all be okay, it'll all be okay Balance how I feel the weight Tellin' me to see the good in the bad Tellin' me to stop settin' traps Even in Paris I was sad Choked, tense; nows, thens Even when they're handing me the bag Time spent; fashion sense Put me back together again Always the seamstress for the band A steady cure for my shaky hands It's the way she talks and the things she says Don't talk like that she said, she said She said it makes her sad, ah ah Don't talk like that she said, "Be glad" "Cause you got what you have" Don't talk like that she said, she said She said it makes her sad Don't talk like that she said (raised her like my son) "You don't know what you have" "You don't know what you have" "You don't know what you-" Even in Paris I was sad (raised her like my son)
