Lyrics
It can’t be said I’m an early bird
It’s ten o’clock before I say a word
Baby, I can never tell
How do you sleep so well
You keep telling me to live right
To go to bed before daylight
But then you wake up for the sunrise
You know you don’t gotta pretend
Baby, now and then
Don’t you just wanna wake up
Dark as a lake
Smelling like a bonfire
Lost in a haze
If you’re drunk on life, babe
I think it’s great
But while in this world
I think I’ll take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
I aim low
I aim true and the ground is where I go
I work late where I’m free from the phone
And the job gets done
But you worry some, I know
But who wants to live forever babe
You treat your mouth as if it’s heaven’s gate
The rest of you like you’re the TSA
I wish that I could go along
Babe, don’t get me wrong
You know you’re bright as the morning
As soft as the rain
Pretty as a vine
As sweet as a grape
If you can sit in a barrel
Maybe I’ll wait
Until that day
I’d rather take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me
I take my whiskey neat
My coffee black and my bed at three
You’re too sweet for me
You’re too sweet for me

It’s the “damn you’re perfect….for someone else” of it all

This is the most beautiful way someone's said "its not you, its me"
-
It's been way too fucking long since Hozier had a popular song on the radio.
-
The true meaning of this song revolves around a contrast between two different lifestyles and the dynamics of a relationship where these differences are evident. The narrator describes their own late-night, laid-back, and somewhat rebellious way of living, characterized by staying up late, drinking whiskey neat, and taking coffee black. In contrast, their partner is depicted as an early riser, more disciplined, and perhaps more conventional or "sweet" in their approach to life. The narrator acknowledges and admires the partner's qualities but feels that their own lifestyle is fundamentally different. This difference creates a sense of admiration mixed with an understanding that their ways of living might not entirely align. The song expresses a desire to be accepted for their own way of life while appreciating the partner's contrasting traits. Ultimately, it’s about accepting and embracing differences within a relationship while staying true to oneself.

the bass line is so addictive

This song is the epitome of "Live & Let Live" & "Really, it's not you, it's not me either, we just want different things in life".

She basically wants more for him & he’s content with his life . She’s too bright happy & progressive while he rather just live , drink & have fun . She’s too sweet for him 💗

What I get from this banger: You’re great. I’m great. We just need different things from our life partners, and that’s okay ❤
