Sweet and Lovely - Sonny Stitt, Charles Mingus, Johnny Richards

Sweet and lovely

Sweeter than the roses in May

Sweet and lovely

Heaven must have sent him my way

Skies above me Never were as blue as his eyes

And he loves me Who would want a sweeter surprise?

When he nestles in my arms so tenderly

There’s a thrill that words cannot express

In my heart a song of love is taunting me Melody haunting me Sweet and lovely

Sweeter than the roses in May

And he loves me There is nothing more I can say

When he nestles in my arms so tenderly

There’s a thrill that words cannot express

In my heart a song of love is taunting me Melody haunting me Sweet and lovely

Sweeter than the roses in May

And he loves me There is nothing more I can say

There is nothing more I can say

There is nothing more I can say

There is nothing more I can say

There is nothing more I can say
