[Intro – Instrumental (~15s) (Big blues-rock guitar riff with slide accents, punchy bass, swaggering drums, playful wah licks.)]
(Aaaahh-yeah)
[Verse 1 – Raspy soulful vocals]
I caught your smile in the neon glow,
It hit me harder than a rock ‘n’ roll show.
The way you move, baby, it’s so real,
Like lightning strike on a spinning wheel.
[Pre-Chorus – Driving groove]
Every step, you light my flame,
Got me callin’ out your name.
[Chorus – Big and anthemic]
Oh, you’re the sweetest thing I know,
Sugar on my lips, and I can’t let go.
Dancin’ through my heart, takin’ control,
Yeah, you’re the sweetest thing I know...
(Oh-oh-oh... The sweetest thing)
[Verse 2 – Raspy soulful vocals]
You got a wild side, I can’t resist,
A rebel soul with a cherry-red kiss.
Every laugh, girl, you take me higher,
Gasoline on an endless fire.
[Pre-Chorus]
Every look, you shake my ground,
Turn my whole world upside down.
[Chorus – Bigger]
Oh, you’re the sweetest thing I know,
Sugar on my lips, and I can’t let go.
Dancin’ through my heart, takin’ control,
Yeah, you’re the sweetest thing I know...
Yeah-yeah-yeah
[Bridge – Instrumental (~20s) (Wah-heavy guitar solo, slides, bends, playful swagger. Bass and drums lock in.)]
Yeah... the sweetest thing
[Breakdown – Vocal Ad-libs + Band accents]
Yeah, baby, you got me singin’,
You got me swingin’,
Oh, I can’t stop believin’—
You’re my sweet salvation!
Yeah, baby, my sweetest thing!
[Final Chorus – Layered vocals, extra energy]
Oh, you’re the sweetest thing I know,
Sugar on my lips, and I can’t let go.
Dancin’ through my heart, takin’ control,
Yeah, you’re the sweetest thing I know!
[Outro – Instrumental (~20s) (Big riff reprise, band jamming out, guitar slides and bends, ending on one last punchy hit.)]
