Steve Wynn Sweetness And Light Lyrics

Jennifer sits and cries in the dark
And dreams about dreaming and waits for the spark
Of anything that will remind her of anything else again
She remembers the day that she drove him away
How she hated him then but loves him today
And she wonders what she would say to him now
It doesn't matter anyway

Sweetness and light
Sweetness and light
Why can't it allways be sweetness and light

Jennifer writes in her journal, she says
"He's been calling me over and over again
And every time I pick up the phone
He says nothing"
She can't remember the pain,
She can't remember the kicks
Just a Stevie Wonder song from 1976 And they say you should learn from your past mistakes
she says, "That's easy for you to say" (ch)

And she says "Why do you call me ?
Why do you write me ?
Why are you always around
What do you want from me?
What do I hav for you?
Why don't you leave me alone?"

Jennifer writes in her journal, she says
"He's been calling me over and over again
and I put on a record and turn up the sound
and close my eyes until the noise goes down
and the phone rings over and over again
over and over and over again"
and she picks it up on the 20th ring
and says "don't f*ck with me, please don't f*ck with
me."
