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 chilhood 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 stared too long
i´d probably break down and cry

wuooh sweet child o´mine
wuoh oh oh oh sweet love of mine

She's got eyes of the bluest skies
as id ther thought of rain
i hate to look into those eyes
and see an ounce of pain
her hair reminds me
of a war safe place
where as a child i'd hide
and pray for the thunder
and the rain
to quietly pass me by





wuooh sweet child o´mine
wuoh oh oh oh sweet love of mine

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the song Sweet Child O' Mine by Banda Do Sul feat Natascha are very poetic and evocative, describing the beauty and innocence of childhood memories. The opening line, "She's got a smile that it seems to me reminds me of childhood memories," sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer reminisces about a time when everything was fresh and new, where the sky was bright blue, and everything was full of hope and possibility.


The second verse is equally dreamy, describing the woman's eyes as having the thought of rain. It is interesting how the Descriptive terms for the woman's eyes change from "blue skies" to "thought of rain," showing the versatility in the vocalist's ability to describe emotions. However, the singer hates to look into those eyes and see any ounce of pain, so she thinks of a safe place in her hair, where she could hide as a child and pray for the thunder and rain to pass her by quietly.


The chorus, "Wuooh sweet child o´mine, wuoh oh oh oh sweet love of mine," is probably the most recognizable part of the song, and it is easy to understand why. The powerful lyrics and melody capture the innocence, purity, and beauty of childhood, making it a timeless classic.
