Sweet Child O’ Mine
Banda Do Sul Feat. Natascha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky

Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry

Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain

Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by

Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine





Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Her smile is so radiant that it catches my attention


Reminds me of childhood memories
Her smile feels familiar like the happy memories of my childhood


Where everything
In those childhood memories


Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Everything felt new and refreshing as a clear blue sky


Now and then when I see her face
Occasionally, when I catch a glimpse of her face


She takes me away to that special place
It feels like she's transporting me to a unique and special location


And if I'd stare too long
If I look at her for too long


I'd probably break down and cry
I may become emotional and start crying


She's got eyes of the bluest skies
Her eyes are as blue as a clear and beautiful sky


As if they thought of rain
They appear as if they are anticipating the arrival of rain


I hate to look into those eyes
It makes me sad to look into her eyes


And see an ounce of pain
If I detect even a slight bit of pain in them


Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Her hair makes me think of a cozy and secure location


Where as a child I'd hide
A place where, as a child, I could conceal myself


And pray for the thunder
And hope that the thunder and lightning outside would disappear


And the rain
And that the rain would stop


To quietly pass me by
So that I could remain undisturbed and safe


Sweet child o' mine
My sweet child


Sweet love of mine
My sweet love


Sweet child o' mine
My sweet child


Sweet love of mine
My sweet love


Sweet child o' mine
My sweet child


Sweet love of mine
My sweet love
