Lyrics The Statler Brothers

The Statler Brothers

Sweeter and Sweeter

Sweeter and sweeter, the days going by

Memories outnumber, the stars in the sky

The more I deny it, the more that I lie.

As the memories get sweeter,

I miss you and cry.

Gone are the days, when I was your hero.

And you were my princess, so perfect it seemed.

Then I took to picking, and you took to playing

And we both took to dancing in another one's dreams

Sweeter and sweeter, the days going by

Memories outnumber the stars in the sky

The more I deny it, the more that I lie.

As the memories get sweeter, I miss you and cry.

I was a loner, and you were a dreamer

And we both took ourselves too much to heart

And everyone knows if you don't grow together

Sooner or later, you'll grow apart.

Sweeter and sweeter, the days going by

Memories outnumber, the stars in the sky

The more I deny it, the more that I lie.

As the memories get sweeter,

I miss you and cry.

Sweeter and sweeter, the days going by

As the memories get sweeter, I miss you and cry.
