Tonic – Sugar

"Sugar" as written by and Daniel Hunt....
Come on baby get your shoes on
You look like you need a rescue
Underneath the Southern moonlight
Where only I can find you
We can do it with our eyes closed
We can sit and talk for hours
Underneath the golden flowers
Where my sunshine grows

[Chorus]
Sugar my love
Sugar my burn
Sugar may hide
Sugar may learn

I could give a thousand reasons
I could live a thousand lives
I know I will always meet you
Underneath a summer sky
So come on tell me love is glory
So come on tell me love is real
Show me what your heart is made of
Show me what I need to feel

[Chorus]

Show me that love is worth the wait
Tell me I'm right
Give me your love don't hesitate
Show me tonight

I waited so long for a love so true
So I'm giving it all right back to you
I'm giving you my best of silver
I'm giving you my best of gold

Sugar may hide
Sugar may burn

So come on baby get those shoes on
And we can run away from here
Talk about a life we're starting
We can start it all right here

Show me that love is worth the wait
Tell me I'm right
Give me your love don't hesitate
Show me tonight

    General CommentThis song reminds me of the summer that I met a great guy that I will never forget. When I was finally able to date him, something tragic kept us apart. Its been a year since I started falling for him and for the past 2 months we FINALLY have our chance to be together...this song just says it soooo well! I smile every time i hear it!

    General CommentSuch a beautiful love song...wouldn't be so amazing if someone told you this song made them think of you? For me it's all about loving someone so much you can just chill under the moon and be elated just because you're with them. You just whisk them away and show them what it's about.

    General CommentThis song makes me think of the girl I want so badly to be with. Love has an amazing power to make people do things everyone thinks is impossible, beating all odds, crossing all obstacles for that one instant yours eyes meet. Love is above all curious and great, and even more, it's worth the wait. (to my sugar bowl)

    General CommentNot much to analyze here...the song is just a good old-fashioned love song, that you can listen to over and over again...

    What's funny is that we all have different parts we like; mine is:

    "You're looking like you need a rescue
    Underneath the southern moonlight
    Where only I can find you..."

    AND
    "I could give a thousand reasons
    I could give a thousand lives
    I know I would always meet you
    Underneath a summer sky
    So come on tell me love is glory
    Come on tell me love is real
    Show me what your heart is made of
    Show me what I need to feel"

    I mean, WOW...there is nothing that could be done to improve this song...it was written and performed to perfection.

    General CommentMy favourite section of this song is

    "Show me that love is worth the wait
    Tell me I'm right
    Give me your love don't hesitate
    Show me tonight"

    it just speaks to me. it's just a great love song. something universal about.

    General Commenti like a lad at the moment lol.. he knows my feelings and i think/blindly hope he reciprocates, but we have both been burned before by love.. this song makes me want to take a chance for him coz he is worth so much.. i hope he feels the same someday. Onnieburgers is right, its a beautiful, great love song, and also universally pleasing.
