Sweet thing I've been lost in the light every morning Glistening's a state of my mind I've been trying to act on your social cues But you know I need someone else to tell me what to do So sweet thing, tell me what to do Well if I knew, I could be a better man I could be an elephant I'd never leave you, not again I'd be sweet like cinnamon And if we had nothing to spend We could always sell my skin Maybe then the madness ends Maybe I could love you then ♪ Sweet thing If I'm losing you Know my silver linings typically hit me in the afternoon And I'll think of you, so don't change your mind Just give me time I need time I could be a better man I could be an elephant I'd never leave you, not again I'd be sweet like cinnamon And if we had nothing to spend We could always sell my skin Maybe then the madness ends Maybe I could love you then
