Sweet Tea Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm my best
I'm myself whenever you're around
You're my favorite sound
Favorite sound
I felt my pain drift away with November rain
Cleared my soul and my mind
And, you're the reason why (Yeah)

[Chorus]
You make no sense (Makes sense)
So perfect, it makes no sense
Like that empty cup you left in my, my fridge
And that sweet tea is sweeter than you, sweeter than you (Boy)
Sweeter than you
It feels like I'm dreamin', dreamin' (Dreamin')
But my dreams ain't sweetеr than you
My dreams ain't sweeter than you
No, my dreams ain't sweetеr than you
My dreams ain't sweeter than you

[Verse 2]
I feel so free
So serene, whenever you're with me
Sweep over my soul, yeah, I don't mind
I know the reasons why (Yeah)
[Chorus]
You make no sense (Makes sense)
So perfect, it makes no sense
And I don't know what this is but you're pure magic
And that sweet tea is sweeter than you, sweeter than you (Boy)
Sweeter than you
It feels like I'm dreamin', dreamin' (Dreamin')
But my dreams ain't sweeter than you
My dreams ain't sweeter than you
No, my dreams ain't sweeter than you
My dreams ain't sweeter than you

[Verse 3]
Nothing sweeter than your love
I'm fallin' way too deep now
Nothing sweeter that your love
I need you here

[Outro]
And that sweet tea is sweeter than you, sweeter than you, boy, sweeter than you
Sweeter than you, oh
It feels like I'm dreamin', dreamin', dreamin'
Nothing sweeter than your—
Sweeter than your love
Your love

What did Snoh Aalegra say about "Sweet Tea"?
Genius Answer

I wrote it prior to kind of finishing up the production and once it was completed, it just really felt really spiritual in a way. It also has one of my favorite bridges I’ve ever written, and that bridge really takes me to another place in the song.
