Bittersweet

Black and blue heart in two
Her perfume creeps into my room tonight
Troubled eyes make up hides
A tear that found it's way into her life

(Chorus)
And now she's
Sweeping up the broken dreams
Acting out the final scene
Savoring the bittersweet taste of love

Keep aloof with the proof
That's bottled up inside you on the shelf
Sugar pill icy chill
You only ache from beating up yourself

(Chorus version 2)
And now I'm bailing out the sympathy
Hoping you'll consider me
Drowning in the bittersweet pool of love

Seems the more I reach
The further I'm falling
From her tree
(They) tell you love is sweet
But watch when you take a bite
You may spoil your appetite

Woke today
To the rain
That trickled down between
My window pain
Nothing new but for you
Another man to
Take the other's place

(Chorus version 3)
And now I'm
Counting down the calories
You only want me in between
Choking on the bittersweet taste of love
