"Love Is Sweeter" lyrics

"Love Is Sweeter"

It's easier to loaf on a busy day
When there's lots of work to be done
I can drink more water when it's hot and dry
And my throat has been scorched by the sun
You feel pretty small when you study the sky
As far as the eye can see
And love is sweeter when you're all alone
The way that you left me

The shadows turn black
In the middle of the day
When the sun's high in the sky
And lights get brighter in the middle of the night
Where there wasn't any light to see by
I pass not the place where we sat yesterday
Where you rested your head on my knee
And love is sweeter when you're all alone
The way that you left me
