[Verse 1]
She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I stare too long, I'll probably break down and cry

[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
She's got eyes of the bluest skies as if they thought of rain
I'd hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by

[Chorus]
Whoa, oh, oh
Sweet child o' mine
Whoa oh, oh, oh
Sweet love of mine

[Drop]

[Outro]
Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine
Sweet child o' mine
(Sweet child o' mine)
Sweet love of mine
