In Your Own Sweet Way (Album Version)

In Your Own Sweet Way

You must admit that I have been most patient

As patient as the fair Penelope

Who waited for her boy to hurry home from Troy

While he cavorted gayly cross the sea

You must admit that I have been most faithful

As faithful as a girl could ever be

Penelope turned gray, Ulysses strayed away

I think she waited half a century...not me!

In your own sweet way you turned the whole world upside down

Put on a false face, played the clown

Well you had your way

Now it's plain to see I'm nothing but a passing phase

You don't intend to mend your ways to remain with me

You found my style amusing for a while

You've got to have your fun with everyone

In your own sweet way you let me learn to know you well

I'm turning flip flops I can tell you that you'd like to stay your own sweet way

In your own sweet way you turned the whole world upside down

Put on a false face, played the clown

Well you had your say

Now it's plain to me I'm nothing but a passing phase

You don't intend to mend your ways to remain with me

It's now my turn. You taught me live and learn

I caught you at your game now blush for shame

In your own sweet way, I know your terms, I know them well

I'm turning flip flops I can tell you that you'd like to stay your own sweet way
