Sweet Love on My Mind
Yearning for Sweet Love: Jimmy & Johnny's Melodic Plea
Lyrics
I'm a man who's got nothing but sweet love on my mind
I focus on thoughts of sweet love.
If you really going to leave me let me love you just one more time
If you're really leaving, allow me one last moment of love.
You know I love you baby I need yout loving bad
Expressing deep affection and a strong desire for your love.
Just give me some sweet love right this minute or you sure gonna make me mad
Urgent plea for immediate affection to avoid frustration.
I'm a man who's got nothing but sweet love on my mind
Reiteration of the constant focus on sweet love.
You love me than you leave me and I cry the whole night through
Expressing emotional pain when love is transient.
Yes you rumble then you leave me and I don't know what to do
Confusion and distress caused by abrupt departures.
I need your little lovin arms around me to hold and to squeeze me tight
Desire for comforting and tight embraces for emotional support.
But you first gonna love me than you leave me girl and you know that that ain't right
Disapproval of the pattern of loving then leaving.
I'm a man who's got nothing but sweet love on my mind
Emphasizing the single-minded preoccupation with sweet love.

Instrumental break.
I'm a man who's got nothing but sweet love on my mind
Reiteration of the predominant focus on sweet love.
Well I need your lovin baby or I'm sure gonna loose my mind
Expressing the emotional consequences of lacking love.
You know I love you honey but you just don't treat me right
Acknowledgment of love, but dissatisfaction with treatment.
Just gimme some sweet love right this minute or we're gonna have a big fight
Demand for immediate affection to prevent conflict.
I'm a man who's got nothing but sweet love on my mind
Restating the exclusive concentration on sweet love.
Well the river looks cold and the bottom is a long way down
Contemplation of a deep and ominous consequence of departure.
If you're really gonna leave me that's where I'm gonna be found
If abandoned, a metaphorical descent to a desolate place.
When the mailman comes in the morning there's a note up on my door
Indication of departure through a note for the mailman.
Better bring my mail to the bottom of the river I don't live here no more
Dramatic decision to sever ties, suggesting relocation.
I'm a man who's got nothing but sweet love on my mind
Reiteration of the all-encompassing focus on sweet love.
