Bittersweet Lyrics

The summer air fills the sky over the market square

And I can't help but stare as she handpicks her way through the pears

But it's all bittersweet

And the breeze blowing the hair from her face has got me on my knees

And that unforgiving sun's no match for the glow coming off of her teeth

But it's all bittersweet

If there's one thing that never changes it's nothing ever changes

I could hold on tight or I could let it go

But love never comes back home

So I'll savour the moments, as I count down the days

Till she leaves, it's all bittersweet

I'll watch as the curtains draw for the woman she wants to be

And as time passes on I'll see the parts of her no one else sees

But it's all bittersweet

She paints on the canvas, she's chiseling out the tree

And I'm the clay between her fingers and she's molding the man I need to be

But it's all bittersweet

If there's one thing that never changes it's nothing ever changes

I could hold on tight or I could let it go

But love never comes back home

So I'll savour the moments, as I count down the days

Till she leaves, it's all bittersweet

She built this heart of mine a home, a cabin on the beach

And if I had never walked the sand or felt the waves

I never would have believed

But it's all bittersweet

And I've never feared to be alone and now it cripples me

And it's a shame that it's not a dream cause she's become the air my heart needs to breathe

And it tastes bittersweet

If there's one thing that never changes it's nothing ever changes

I could hold on tight or I could let it go

But love never comes back home

So I'll savour the moments, as I count down the days

Till she leaves, it's all bittersweet

If there's one thing that never changes it's nothing ever changes

I could hold on tight or I could let it go

But love never stays at home

So I'll savour the moments, as I count down the days

Till she leaves, it's all bittersweet
