[Verse 1]
Bittersweet, bittersweet
Your memory
That follows me
Is bittersweet
This heart of mine keeps hangin' on
To dreams of you although you're gone
Both good and bad
Glad and sad
Bittersweet
[Verse 2]
Bittersweet, mm-hmm, bittersweet
A love so rare
Beyond compare
But incomplete
I can't make up my mind if I
Should wear a smile or sit and cry
In misery
Or ecstasy
Bittersweet
[Verse 3]
Mm, bittersweet (Bittersweet), ah-ha, bittersweet (bittersweet)
This afterglow
It haunts me so
Is bittersweet
There are so many smiles and tears
Here among my souvenirs
Of lovin' you
Sad but true
Bittersweet
[Verse 4]
Ah, bittersweet, hah (Bittersweet), bittersweet (bittersweet)
I'm remembering
How my heart would sing
Each time we'd meet
The thrill it was to be with you
Sad that everything that we would say and do
Are fragments of
A faded love
That's bittersweet
[Outro]
Sad that it's bittersweet
Ah-ha, bittersweet
Oh, ah-ha-ha-ha, bittersweet
