Back then when the heartbreak came yeah it hit me pretty hard

I waved hello and goodbye to the ghosts on the boulevard

Well oh my baby you're so sweet it makes me cry

Well oh my baby you're so sweet it makes me cry 

 

You're so sweet

You're so sweet

You're so sweet

I wanna cry 

 

La La La La La 

 

Well I dealt with the dope fiends honey just trying to sympathize

He turned and looked at me with his cold debaler red dry clean eyes

Well oh my baby you're so sweet it makes me cry

Well oh my baby you're so sweet it makes me cry 

 

You're so sweet

You're so sweet

You're so sweet

I wanna cry 

 

Your former lover is leaving checking out not coming back

The downtown trains have taken him screaming on down the track

There is a terrible taste on his tongue from the chemicals

He's gonna spit his blood all over the dope white walls 

 

You're so sweet

You're so sweet

You're so sweet

I wanna cry 

 

La La La La La
