Song lyrics

Send "Sweetness" ringtones to your cell

If you're listening, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
Sing it back, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
String from your tether unwinds, whoa-a, whoa-a 
Up and outward to bind, whoa-a, whoa-a 

I was spinning free, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
With the little sweet and simple numbing me 

Are you listening, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
Sing it back, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
So tell me what do I need, whoa-a, whoa-a 
When words lose their meaning, whoa-a, whoa-a 
I was spinning free, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
With the little sweet and simple numbing me 
Yeah, stumble 'til you crawl, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
Sinking into sweet uncertainty 

Ooooooh, oooooh, ooooooh, oooooh, 
Ooooooh, oooooh, ooooooh, oooooh, 
Ooooooh, oooooh, ooooooh, oooooh, 
Ooooooh, oooooh, ooooooh, oooooh, 
(ahhhhh, ahhhh, ahhhhh, ahhhh 
ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhh, ahhhh, ahhh) 

Are you listening 
Are you listening 

If you're listening, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
If you're listening, are you listening 
Sing it back, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
If you're listening, are you listening 
I'm still running away, whoa-a, whoa-a 
I won't play your hide and seek game, whoa-a, whoa-a 

I was spinning free, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
With the little sweet and simple numbing me 

What a dizzy dance, whoa-a-a-a-a-a 
The sweetness will not be concerned with me 
No, the sweetness will not be concerned with me 
No, the sweetness will not be concerned with me

1 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This is one of the only Jimmy Eat World songs ive heard and it must be the best song in history, literally. forget bohemiam rhapsody and classics like that, this song could easily snatch the crown for best song in history away from queen, though i do love queen
