'sweet love'
C. Seefried

You told me to laugh
Laugh baby laugh
You told me to laugh
When you knew that I wanted to cry
You told me to live
Yeah you got something to give
You told me to live when you knew
That I wanted to die

What should I do
C'mon come shinin' through
We got today
C'mon show me the way

To love
Sweet love
La la la Love
Sweet Love

You told me get high
Get high baby get high
You told me get high
When I was getting so low

You told me get out
That's what it's all about
Get out do some livin'
This life you were givin' to live

You say be real
You say be true
You tell me be me and I will have you
You say fall back
Baby get blue
You tell me be me and then I'm gonna have you

If you're real smart you're gonna open your heart
Give it and get it

You're all I wanna see
I wanna be
I wanna do
I wanna have
I wanna feel
I wanna say it to

You are the world
The sky up above




Shine like the sun
Sweet Love

Overall Meaning

The song "Sweet Love" by Chris Seefried is a love ballad that explores the complicated emotions that can arise in a relationship. The first verse sets the tone for the song as the singer describes how their partner encourages them to "laugh" and "live" even when they are feeling down. These contradictory emotions are further explored in the chorus where the singer expresses a desire for "sweet love".


The second verse continues this exploration of mixed emotions as the partner tells the singer to "get high" when they are feeling low. This could be interpreted as a call to escape one's problems rather than face them head-on. However, the partner also encourages the singer to "be real" and "be true" to oneself. The bridge of the song emphasizes the importance of opening one's heart to give and receive love.
