Lyrics of “Too Sweet” by Hozier
I’m not an early bird, that’s a lie
I’m not awake before ten at night
Baby, why you sleep so well?
How do you sleep so well?
You keep preaching living right
Sleeping before the morning light
Yet you’re up for dawn’s first sigh
You don’t have to fake, love; just be, perhaps
Don’t you crave dark mornings as deep as a lake
Smelling of campfire, lost in a daze?
If you’re intoxicated on life, darling, I’m in awe
But in this world
I prefer my whiskey neat
My coffee pitch black, my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee pitch black, my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
I aim low, I aim sure, down to earth is where I endure
I toil late where the phone can’t ring
But the work gets done
But I know you worry some
But who wants to live eternally, love?
You guard your lips as if they’re Heaven’s gate
The rest of you, well, it feels like TSA
I wish I could come along, dear, don’t misconstrue
You’re radiant as the dawn, tender as rain
Lovely as a vine, sweet as a grape
If you can sit in a cask, then perhaps I’ll wait
Until that time
I’d rather savor my whiskey neat
My coffee pitch black, my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee pitch black, my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
I quaff my whiskey neat
My coffee pitch black, my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
