Sweet Child of Mine - The original version and my version for her !!!

The Classic Reigns Supreme - GNR Roxx forever

As I wud try to pitch in my own version for someone special, I would like to pay my holiest respect for GNR for coming up with this song, thank my friends at NIT who made me hear dis song, thank my roomies n neighbors who heard dis song the infinite number of times I played during my sophomore year and finally to my Aphrodite who inspired me to write my amateur version. So here it goes....

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry


Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine


She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by


Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine


Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o' mine

My humble version for my Aphrodite

She's got hair that it seems to me
Reminds me of deep dark mysteries
Where everything
Was as mystic as gypsy chicanery
Now and then when I gaze into her eyes
She reminds me of the dark overcast monsoon sky
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably be lost in what are the waters of lake Eyre


Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine


She's got the innocence of a little child
And overtakes your mind with a single smile
I am entangled in her smiles so often
that I forget how fast moments pass by
I would ask time to pause for some time
and let me gaze into her eyes without a sigh
It makes me realize how precious she is
and without her I would surely die


Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine

Thanks again GNR !!!
