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
