Honeysuckle Rose

Jane Monheit

Have no use for sweets of any kind
Since the day you came around
From the start I instantly made up my mind
Sweeter sweetness can't be found
You're so sweet, can't be beat
Nothing sweeter ever stood on feet

Every honeybee fills with jealousy
When they see you out with me
I don't blame them goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
When you're passing by
Flowers droop and sigh
And I know the reason why
You're much sweeter, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose

Don't buy sugar
You just have to touch my cup
You're my sugar
It's sweet when you stir it up

When I'm taking sips from your tasty lips
Seems the honey fairly drips
You're confection, goodness knows
Honeysuckle rose
