The Sweetest Thing (From the New Line Cinema film "Love Jones") - Refugee Camp All Stars/Ms. Lauryn Hill

The sweetest thing I've ever known

Was like the kiss on the collarbone

Soft caress of happiness

The way you walk your style of dress

I wish I didn't get so weak ooh

Baby just to hear you speak

Makes me argue just to

See how much you're in love with me

See like a queen a queen upon her throne

It was the sweet sweet sweetest thing I know

It was the sweet sweet sweetest thing I know

I get mad when you walk away

So I tell you leave when I mean stay

Warm as the sun dipped in black

Fingertips on the small of my back

More valuable than all I own

Like your precious precious

Precious precious dark skin tone

It was the sweet sweet sweetest thing I know

It was the ah I tried to explain

Ah but baby it's in vain

Speaking on my mother's phone

The touching makes me think I'm grown

(You ain't grown)

Sweet prince of the ghetto

Your kisses taste like armoretto

Intoxicating oh so intoxicating

How sad how sad

That all things come to an end but then again

I'm I'm not alone

It was the sweet sweet sweetest thing I know

It was the sweet sweet sweetest thing I know
