Analysis of Sweet Love

James John McCloskey Jr. 1987 (Pennsylvania)



What is sweet love?
Sweet love is when you feel strong and meaningful
But at the same time weak and fearful
"Sweet Love"
It is a special bond between two people
That cannot be broken
Nor forgotten
"Sweet Love"
It gives you meaning in your day
And lights a path throughout your way
"Sweet Love"
So what do you ask is sweet love
It is the most wonderful thing that could happen to you
Love is sweet and can't be beat!
"Sweet Love"
