Sweet Pea - Amos Lee

Sweet Pea
Apple of my heart
Don’t know when and I don’t know why
You’re the only reason I keep on coming home

Sweet Pea
What’s all this about
Don’t get your way all you do is fuss and pout
You’re the only reason I keep on coming home

I’m like the rock of Gibralter
I always seem to falter
And the words just get in the way
Oh I know I’m gonna crumble
I’m trying to say humble
But I never think before I say

~ Instrumental break~

Sweet Pea
Keeper of my soul
I know sometimes I’m out of control
You’re the only reason I keep on coming home
You’re the only reason I keep on coming yeah
You’re the only reason I keep on coming home





Have u heard about this guy, Amos Lee?



Amos Lee is an American singer-songwriter born in 1978 whose gentle style fuses elements of jazz, folk and country. He learned his craft while at University and soon after he graduated his intended career in teaching was abandoned, replaced by a career in music. A self produced five song EP introduced his talents to Blue Note Records and to Norah Jones, who invited him to open for her on her 2004 tour.



His first album was released in 2005 and did well on the US Heatseekers chart, reaching No.2. Several of the songs were picked up by television shows, including House and Grey's Anatomy. His second and most recent album is Supply and Demand the success of which has consolidated his earlier accomplishment.
