"Sweeter And Sweeter" lyrics - THE STATLER BROTHERS

[Chorus:]
Sweeter and sweeter the days going by
Memories outnumber the stars in the sky
The more I deny it the more that I lie
As the memories get sweeter I miss you and cry

Gone are the days when I was your hero
And you were my princess so perfect it seemed
Then I took to picking and you took to playing
And we both took to dancing in another one's dreams

[Chorus]

I was a loner and you were a dreamer
And we both took ourselves too much to heart
And everyone knows if you don't grow together
Sooner or later you'll grow apart

[Chorus]

Sweeter and sweeter the days going by
As the memories get sweeter I miss you and cry
