Bittersweet

[Verse 1]
She's been waiting since she was eight
To say goodbye to this place
Her misfit moods were hard to shake
But her times here were real and great
Now the car is all packed
And there's no looking back
She's heading up and moving out
But now she's attached to this town

[Chorus]
Bittersweet is what they call it
Feels like you're flying while you're falling
Bittersweet is what they call it
When you get what you thought you wanted

[Verse 2]
She closes the door and turns the key
To unload memories
She flips on the light
To look at her new life
As her boxes are unpacked
She’s looking through her past
And though she is alone
She knows this is now her home
​
[Chorus]
Bittersweet is what they call it
Feels like you're flying while you're falling
Bittersweet is what they call it
When you get what you thought you wanted
​
[Bridge]
She's young and naive
With so many hopes and dreams
And the whole world in her reach

[Chorus]
Bittersweet is what they call it
Feels like you're flying while you're falling
Bittersweet is what they call it
When you get what you thought you wanted
​
[Verse 3]
Now she walks down the street
She hears friendly greetings
From those she meets
And down the road there's a café
Where they know her name
In the corner there's a stage
Where they ask her to play
There's a smile on her face
‘Cause she belongs in this place
​
[Chorus]
Bittersweet is what they call it
Feels like you're flying while you're falling
Bittersweet is what they call it
When you get what you thought you wanted
Bittersweet is what they call it
Feels like you're flying while you're falling
Bittersweet is what they call it
