Sweet Life
Marie Osmond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I get high just watching her grow
We always dreamed we'd live in a castle
Oh, but we're in the same old shack
Sometimes we get into a hassle
But we always take each other back
This old world seems to be in a hurry
But darlin' we'll just keep on takin' our time
'Cause we're livin' such a sweet life
Oh what a neat life
Sharin' my love with you
We're livin' such a sweet life
Oh what a neat life
Makin' our dreams come true
We're makin' our dreams come true
You are my love, you are my life
And I get high just holding you tight
We always dreamed we'd make a lot of money
I don't mind being poor
'Cause when you make love to me, honey
I couldn't ask for any more
All our friends seem to be in a hurry
But darlin' we'll just keep on takin' our time
'Cause we're livin' such a sweet life
Oh what a neat life
Sharin' my love with you
We're livin' such a sweet life
Oh what a neat life
Makin' our dreams come true
We're makin' our dreams come true

This duet works well, as the lyrics lend themselves to the couple. Paul Davis had one of those voices that you could listen too forever. What a talent!

Love all of Paul Davis' music and Marie's vocals blend so well with his. Glad they did couple duets

What a beautifully constructed song! I know it's not 'cool' to rag on "Music, these days," but this kind of writing is hard to match, much less surpass. Those chord changes that just keep climbing and fanning out into the chorus are gorgeous, if not glorious.
Paul Davis may be gone but he created some amazing little slices of sunny, eternal good vibrations, in every sense of that word.
