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
Oh, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
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
Oh, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Oh,
Sweet love of mine
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Oh, oh
Where do we go?
Oh,
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Oh, (sweet child)
Where do we go now?
Oh,
Where do we go now?
Oh,
Where do we go?
Oh,
Where do we go now?
Oh,
Where do we go?
Where do we go now?
Where do we go?
Oh,
Where do we go now?
No, no, no, no, no, no
Sweet child,
Sweet child of mine
The lyrics of Guns N’ Roses’ song Sweet Child O’ Mine depict a nostalgic yearning for a past that was full of innocence and joy. The singer is clearly talking about a woman he loves, referring to her as a “sweet child o’ mine” and describing her smile, eyes, and hair. He sees in her a resemblance to his childhood memories, where life was simpler and full of wonder. When he looks upon her face, she takes him to that special place where he finds an escape from the difficulties of the present. However, he also recognizes that his emotions are so powerful that he could break down and cry if he stared at her for too long. This suggests that his feelings are bittersweet, as he is torn between the happiness that she brings him and a longing for the past.
In the second verse, the singer continues to describe the woman’s physical qualities, drawing analogies to the weather and the environment. Her eyes are like “the bluest skies” and her hair is like “a warm safe place”. These images paint a picture of a woman who is gentle and caring. However, he also recognizes that there may be pain hidden behind her eyes, something he hates to see. This suggests that her past may have been difficult and that she may have suffered in some way. The chorus repeats the phrase “sweet child o’ mine”, emphasizing the singer’s love for her. The final lines of the chorus “sweet love of mine” reinforce this message of love and affection.

When things were at their very worst:
2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid – repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
The first sign - the Earth will spin faster.
The second sign concerns the sun, which will loom larger, brighter and begin to spin.
Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
Beaware – Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
After WW3 – rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist – the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
- will seem to rise from the dead
- will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
Benedict XVI is the last true pope – will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.
- banking collapse was deliberately masterminded by the Antichrist
- Antichrist will step in and create a false peace in the state of Israel by joining them with palestine in an unlikely alliance.
- „He will recite extracts from My Teachings, which he will passionately proclaim from every secular stage in the world, until people sit up and take notice of him.“
