Lyrics

Sugar

Give me sugar
Give me something sweet
I've spent a lifetime
Feeling incomplete
If I sound better
Or if I've come too late
Please reconsider
I don't need much on my plate
Just give me sugar

Don't come close
Please keep at a distance
Look but don't touch
'Til the light goes on
Sorrow's a lamb and please wait at the window
Don't touch the glass 'til the curtain calls

Wait, wait, don't make me wait
Wait, wait, don't make me wait
Just give me sugar

Give me sugar
Give me something deep
Don't make a habit
Of crawling on my knees
But this is different
Can't you see I'm in control
This is the moment
Where all your dreams have flown
Just give me sugar

Don't come close
Please keep at a distance
Look but don't touch
'Til the light goes on
Sorrow's a lamb and please wait at the window
Don't touch the glass 'til the curtain calls

Wait, wait, don't make me wait
Wait, wait, don't make me wait
Just give me sugar

Don't look around
Sugar, don't look around
Said, sugar, don't look around
Sugar, don't look around

Oh, won't someone love me
Won't someone love me
Won't someone love me
Won't someone love me
Like you
Like you
Like you
Like you
Someone like you
