Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes – Sweeter Than Honey lyrics

(S. Van Zandt)

Sweeter than honey, believe it
Better than blue skies or morning dew
I spend all my money, I don't need it
Just as long as I've got you

You know where it is with just one look
I don't need movies or a picture book
You know I'm talking about love, love, love
Ain't nothing but love, love, love
Oh I'm in love, love, love
And honey, I'm talking about the real thing

And that kind of love don't come easy
Ain't much of it in the world around you
That kind of love don't come easy
Honey, I'm so glad I found you
Ooh, yea yea yea

Warmer than sunlight, my baby
I didn't live 'till I felt her touch
Now I'm feeling weak and strong and crazy
I never wanted anything so much

And she understands before I speak a word
I know she's more than I deserve
You know I'm talking about love, love, love
Ain't nothing but love, love, love
Oh I'm in love, love, love
And honey, I'm talking about the real thing

And that kind of love don't come easy
Ain't much of it in the world around you
That kind of love don't come easy
Honey, I'm so glad, so glad, I'm so glad I found you

You know where it is with just one look
I don't need movies or a picture book
You know I'm talking about love, love, love
Ain't nothing but love, love, love
Oh I'm in love, love, love
And honey, I'm talking about the real thing

And that kind of love don't come easy
Ain't much of it in the world around you
That kind of love don't come easy
Honey, I'm so glad, so glad, I'm so glad I found you

And that kind of love don't come easy
