AIN'T IT SWEET
It's easy to forget about the things you love – what's in your heart
Oh, ain't it sweet
to know that you are here to stay – to know that it's been worth the wait
Oh, ain't it sweet
Mmm be aware not to let the

roundabout of day to day
make you forget about how
to be yourself in every way
that you were meant to be
Oh, ain't it sweet to be here
Oh so sweet to be right here

You never take the easy road
That's not where life unfolds
Oh, it feels good
to know your journey's not a race
that neither turn has been a waste
Oh, feeling good
Mmm be aware you never let the

roundabout of day to day
make you forget about how
to be yourself in every way
that you were meant to be
Oh, ain't it sweet to be here
Oh so sweet to be right here

It's not about becoming who you are –
but unbecoming who you're not
while gaining all your comely scars
from past and future memories
they all make up the truth of you
they're part of your sincerity

You've seen the drops of joy in your eye
when needs and wants collide
Oh, ain't it sweet
Remember to enjoy the view
while doing what you're meant to do
Oh, ain't it sweet
Mmm but just beware you never let the

roundabout of day to day
make you forget about how
to be yourself in every way
that you were meant to be
Oh, ain't it sweet to be here
Ain't it sweet to be right here

Singing Beata Viscera (Perotin, born between 1150 and 1165, dead between 1200 and 1225), one of my favourite songs from this era. 

Beata Viscera

The trees, they seem so big
when we lay beneath them 
The sun fills out our eyes
so we can no longer see them
– and they're gone from our eyes

Talking – we're just talking
and there's no one here to worry about
Talking – we're just talking
and there's no one here to worry about
Walking while thinking we are always gonna be around
Talking – we're just talking
and there's no one here to worry about

The rising of the horns
But we are not afraid
We've seen it all before
The taste of sweet reliefs again
And they're gone from our eyes

Talking – we're just talking
and there's no one here to worry about
Talking – we're just talking
and there's no one here to worry about
Walking while thinking we are always gonna be around
Talking – we're just talking
is there someone there to worry about?

Lyrics

Why won't you dance with me x 2

I feel like I'm losing you – like you're slipping through my fingers
Or is it just me interpreting things you say the wrong way
I know that you're busy, that you've got things you need to do
But it wouldn't take too much to make me feel less blue

Why won't you dance with me x 2

I don't think it's wise
to be afraid of life
and all that it can give
if you would only live
like someone wanting more –
someone who'll close that old door
and open up to see
how sweet life can be

Why won't you dance with me x 2

It's easy to understand why you think the way you do
But I'm losing the feeling of being the one you want to turn to

Why won't you dance with me x 4
