Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Uh, uh
Unexpected
Hmm
Multidimensional
Unexpected sound of the Refugee All Stars
Yes
[Verse 2]
The sweetest thing I've ever known
Was like the kiss on a collarbone
The soft caress of happiness
The way you walk, your style of dress
[Verse 3]
I wish I didn't get so weak
Ooh baby, just to hear you speak
Makes me argue just to see
How much you're in love with me
[Verse 4]
See like a queen
A queen upon her throne
It was the sweet, sweet
Sweetest thing I've known
It was the sweet (Sweet)
Sweetest thing I've known
[Verse 5]
I get mad when you walk away (Don't walk away from me, come on love)
So, I tell you leave, when I mean, stay
Warm as the sun dipped in black
Fingertips on the small of my back
[Verse 6]
More valuable than all I own
Like your precious (Precious)
Precious (Precious)
Precious, precious baby, dark skin tone (Dark skin tone)
[Verse 7]
It was the sweet (Sweet)
The sweetest thing I've known
Was the
[Verse 8]
I
I try to explain (I can't explain it, I can't explain it)
I
But, baby it's in vain (Nah mean?)
Oh-oh (Nah mean?)
[Verse 9]
Sneaking on my mother's phone
A touch that makes me think I'm grown (You ain't grown)
Sweet prince of the ghetto (Huh, sweet prince of the ghetto, yeah)
Your kisses taste like amaretto
[Verse 10]
Intoxicating (Intoxicating)
Oh-oh-oh, so intoxicating (Intoxicating)
How sad (It's so sad)
How sad, that all things come to an end
[Verse 11]
But, then again
I'm, I'm not alone
It was the sweet
Sweetest thing I've known (Nah, mean?)
It was the sweet
Sweetest thing I've known
[Verse 12]
I
Sometimes
Watch you in your sleep
I
Excuse me if I get too deep
Hey
Nah mean?
[Verse 13]
Was the sweet
Sweetest thing I've known
