Sweet and Low

[Verse 1]
Nothing tastes like sugar, it's all sweet and low
Nothing drinks like lemonade, nothing skips like stone
Nothing runs like water when your one true love is gone
Every day that comes along has a silver medal on

[Verse 2]
Nothing soars like falcons, it's all paper planes
Nothing stings like thistles and nothing floods like rain
Nothing roars like fire when you're standing on your own
No shelter from the coming storm will ever feel like home

[Verse 3]
Nothing's cut like diamond, it's all shades of coal
Nothing breaks like tidal waves, nothing mends like bone
Nothing tastes like sugar when your love can ne'er return
How to feel with half your heart is the toughest thing to learn
