No Sweetness, No Love

Didn't give me no sweetness Didn't give me no love Oh mama, your lovin' was never enough So I can't give no sweetness and I can't give no love Now she calls me momma, and I'm not enough Oh daddies can leave, and daddies can bruise But your every word, I tangle and use You swore that you loved me for all that I am Oh Just not as much as you did the next man I swore I'd do better for my little girl I'd cherish her, hug her, give her the world I still like the bottle, music, and men Still looking for love down every dead end Didn't give me no sweetness Didn't give me no love Oh mama, your lovin' was never enough So I can't give no sweetness and I can't give no love Now she calls me momma, and I'm not enough Oh help me, sweet Jesus, if I just believe One touch of your cloak, and you'd set me free I want to be patient; I want to be good And love my dear child like a good woman should When I give her my sweetness When I give her my love God help me on days when I'm not enough When she gives me her sweetness When she gives me her love I'll wrap it up. Cherish. It's more than enough
