The Statler Brothers - Sweeter & Sweeter Lyrics

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

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

I was a loner and you 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

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

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