Mick JaggerSweet Thing ( Wandering Spirit)In the beginning, when life was simple
We were at each other night and day
You were so sensual and so inventive
We said we'd stick together come what mayIn the beginning, you were so brutal
You turned the heat on in the afternoon
Get so excited, get so addicted
You had me eating from your golden spoonNow I don't want to spoil the party
I know it goes against the grain
As the plane touched down I got movies of you
Running through my fevered brainI really love my sweet thing, I can't give her up
I really love my sweet thing, I can't give her up
I really love my sweet thing, I can't give her upIn the beginning, when we were winning
I was your ever-present love-sick fool
You turned the heat off and left me standing
Freezing by your swimming poolI can't give it up
I can't give it up
I can't give it up
I can't give it upNow I don't want to spoil the party
I know it goes against the grain
As the plane touched down, and the midnight moon
Can't just walk awayReally love my sweet thing, want to' lick it up
Really love my sweet thing, want to' lick it up
Really love my sweet thing, can't give it up
Really love my sweet thing, can't give it up
