Lirik Sweet Boy - Malcolm Todd
One, two, three, four
Can we go home now?
It's getting later, baby
Can we go home now?
You think it's time to give up
We're on our own now
No place to drive you crazy
Don't share a home now
I'm okay 'til tonight
Ties get broken
You need space and you're not mad when I'm not late
Now I'm not there and you're just fine
But I'm okay 'til tonight
I want you to go
I wrote it in bold
Yeah, I got a plan
And you can't be involved
And when it gets great
Don't start to get mad
'Cause I'ma lose time
When you are free to have
Flying out to the city
They're throwing some money at me
I know it's been shitty
To see the attention I'm getting
But it's been coming
Since I've been singing, baby (Singing, baby)
Now I'll just see you when I'm on business
With everyone you can listen
You can write from where you are living
Can we go home now?
It's getting later, baby
Can we go home now?
You think it's time to give up
We're on our own now
No place to drive you crazy
Don't share a home now
I'm okay 'til tonight
Ties get broken, you need space
And you're not mad when I'm not late now
I'm not there and you're just fine
But I'm okay 'til tonight
(far)
