Standing on the outside
Looking in
Sometimes you can see more
if you know what I mean
Seems to me
That we're losing the plot
When it all comes down
to have or have not
you've got the look
Sure, you've got the style
just remember to laugh
Nothing beats a smile
and if you think this
just isn't so
you'll be the loser
cause you'll never know

The Sweet things
They will pass you by
the Sweet Things
that bring your dreams to life
the sweet things
that sometimes make you cry
how come we don't see them
all the time

v2
we watch the world through a TV screen
where nothing looks real
it's just another scene
you found a lover on the internet
you don't need to meet to have
Cybersex
check out the options
is it one, two, or three
I'm so sorry out of memory
Whatever happens this is just too much
let's all put back
a little human touch

The Sweet things
They will pass you by
the Sweet Things
that bring your dreams to life
the sweet things
that sometimes make you cry
how come we don't see them
all the time

well you know the world is crazy
and sometimes we get lazy
so hold on to the love you make
don't kiss it all goodbye

The Sweet things
They will pass you by
the Sweet Things
that bring your dreams to life
the sweet things
that sometimes make you cry
how come we don't see them
all the time
