Sweet Lyrics

[Verse 1: Majid Al Maskati]
All that matters in the end
Are the moments that we spent
I'm an addict, I'm a mess
You're my lover, you know me best

[Pre-Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
Be about me and I'll be about you (Be about me)
Sing a song from your heart for me (Sing about me)
Sing a song from your heart and I'll love you (And when you leave)
Leave a space in your heart for me (A space you'll see)

[Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
We're not so different but we're moving differently
I feel it anytime you leave, I never knew that love was so sweet
Sweet

[Verse 2: Majid Al Maskati]
You're my winter, you're my spring
In the morning you're all I'm seeing
Pull me closer and let me in
Never thought a fool like me could be a king (Be a king)

[Pre-Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
Be about me and I'll be about you (Be about me)
Sing a song from your heart for me (Sing about me)
Sing a song from your heart and I'll love you (And when you leave)
Leave a space in your heart for me (A space you'll see)
[Chorus: Majid Al Maskati]
We're not so different but we're moving differently
I feel it anytime you leave, I never knew that love was so sweet
Sweet, sweet
Sweet (Sweet)

[Outro: Majid Al Maskati]
All that matters in the end
All the moments that we spend
I'm an addict, I'm a mess
You're my lover, you know me best

What did Majid Jordan say about "Sweet"?
Genius Answer

I still don’t know how we made this one. It was like a 20- to 30-minute thing. I don’t know how it happened.

“It’s funny, I have the whole video on my phone, ‘cause I set up my iPhone when we were first making it, so I have the whole 20 minutes on a video. This was just a moment that Maj and I were in the studio together. It was just us two, and I sat down at a Rhodes [piano] and Maj was singing and something just magical happened that felt very special. We wanted to protect that energy and take our time with it, so I think it only makes sense to leave people on that type of note of hope and love and how special those moments can be.
