Lyric

🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤

She’s got a smile that it seems to meReminds me of childhood memoriesWhere everything was as fresh as the bright blue skyNow and then when I see her faceShe takes me away to that special placeAnd if I stare too long, I’d probably break down and cry
Whoa, oh, ohSweet child o’ mineWhoa, oh, oh, ohSweet love of mine
She’s got eyes of the bluest skiesAs if they thought of rainI’d hate to look into those eyes and see an ounce of painHer hair reminds me of a warm safe placeWhere as a child I’d hideAnd pray for the thunder and the rain to quietly pass me by
Whoa, oh, ohSweet child o’ mineWhoa whoa, oh, oh, ohSweet love of mine
Whoa, yeahWhoa, oh, oh, ohSweet child o’ mineWhoa, oh, whoa, ohSweet love of mineWhoa, oh, oh, ohSweet child o’ mineOoh, yeahOoh, sweet love of mine
Where do we go?Where do we go now?Where do we go?Ooh, oh, where do we go?Where do we go now?Oh, where do we go now?Where do we go? (Sweet child)Where do we go now?Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ayWhere do we go now?Ah, ah
Where do we go?Oh, where do we go now?Oh, where do we go?Oh, where do we go now?Where do we go?Oh, where do we go now?Now, now, now, now, now, now, nowSweet childSweet child of mine
