Lauryn Hill Sweetest Thing (Mahogany Mix) lyrics

Sweet, Sweet, Sweet(tell him)
uh mmmmmmm
-Let me be patient, let me be kind
make me unselfish, without being blind
Though I may suffer, I'll envy it not
and endure what comes, cause he's all I got
and tell him

-Tell him I need him
tell him I love him
and it'll be alright

-Tell him(be alright, be alright)

-Now I may have faith
to make mountains fall
but if I lack love
then I am nothin at all
I can give away
everything I poses
but am without love
then I have no happiness
I know I'm imperfect
and not without sin
but now that I'm older
all childish things end

-and tell him, tell him I need him
tell him I love him
and it'll be alright


-Tell him(be alright, be alright)

-I'll never be jealous
and I won't be too proud
cause love is not boastful
ohhh and love is not loud

-Tell him I need him
tell him I love him
everything is gonna, is gonna be aaaaaalright

oh oh oh yeah yeah oh yeah

-Now I may have wisdom
and knowledge on earth
but if I speak more
oh then what is it worth
see what we now know
is nothin compared
to love that was shown
when our lives was spared

-tell him I need him
tell him I love him
it'll be alright

-tell him( be alright, be alright)
(repeat til song fade out)
