Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Over and continuously
More than just one at a time
Blessing's overtaking me
I'm finally persuaded
I've seen love before
But I've never seen more
Nothing I can strive to be
Could ever help me to repay him
Cause everytime I aim to please
He opens up the heavens
When I think he's done
He suffers down upon me
With another one
And each day I've found that you get sweeter
You get sweeter as the days go by
I've found that
You get sweeter as the days go by
While searching far and near
Looking for some way to serve him
But in my searching I found still
I'll ever be embedded
For the love you shown
By calling me your own
Nothing I can strive to be
Could ever help me to repay him
Cause everytime I aim to please
He opens up the heaven
When I think Jesus is done
He shower's down upon me with another one
And each day I've found that you get sweeter
You get sweeter as the days go by
You get sweeter as the days go by
I've found that you
You get sweeter as the days go by
I've found that you
You get sweeter as the days go by
You're so much more than honey
You're so much more than honey (so much more)
You're so much more than honey
You get sweeter
You're so much more than honey
More than honey (so much)
So much more than honey
You get sweeter
You get sweeter as the days go by
You get sweeter as the days go by
...
Though the harvest was real sweet
Candy was real good
When I had a taste of you and I found that
You get sweeter
When I think that this is it
When I think there is no more
That's when you open heaven's door
And you get sweeter
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
When was in the day you saved me
And since that day I don't know how but somehow
You get sweeter
More than honey
More than honey
More than honey
You get sweeter
