Too Sweet to Spell

[Verse] Well I picked you from the ground Just a lonesome fruit In that distant island sun Under skies so blue Now you're sittin' on my table Oh A story to tell But darling You're too sweet to spell [Verse 2] With your golden crown And your spiky shell Tales of the tropical seas You've got that mystic smell With each bite I drift away like a boat without a sail Oh My pineapple You're too sweet to spell [Chorus] You're the sunshine In the thick of spring A melody on the breeze You make my heart sing Nature's poetry A delight from the well Oh My love You're too sweet to spell [Verse 3] Pierce the skin Let the juices run free Every drop A memory Brings you closer to me In the kitchen light You shine Like a rare jewel from a dell But oh dear You're too sweet to spell [Verse 4] From the islands’ whispers And the sailors' lore You've traveled distant lands just to reach my door In every slice There's a story A memory to quell But my heart knows You're too sweet to spell [Chorus] You're the sunshine In the thick of spring A melody on the breeze You make my heart sing Nature's poetry A delight from the well Oh My love You're too sweet to spell
