[Verse 1]
I color the walls so I can watch the paint dry
Time is a myth, so I just let the clock die
The waitin' is breakin' and it's takin' its toll
A kiss on the lip and a crack in the soul
[Pre-Chorus]
If we keep pushin' our luck
It's gonna catch up
[Chorus]
It's sweet, but it's bitter, you're gone for the winter
It's a worry of mine
Like lemons in water, it's a hit of the sour
Just day-old wine
I don't wanna act like these butterflies
Aren't my worries comin' to life
Like lemons in water, it's a hit of the sour
But not the good kind
[Verse 2]
Hours away from bein' miles apart
You're takin' a plane and you're takin' my heart
It's such a shame that nowhеre feels like home
What's thеre to gain if we're sleepin' alone?
[Pre-Chorus]
If we keep pushin' our luck
It's gonna catch up
[Chorus]
It's sweet, but it's bitter, you're gone for the winter
It's a worry of mine
Like lemons in water, it's a hit of the sour
Just day-old wine
I don't wanna act like these butterflies
Aren't my worries comin' to life
Like lemons in water, it's a hit of the sour
But not the good kind
[Bridge]
I'm pickin' my battles and you're pickin' me up piece by piece
I'm missin' the point 'cause I'm bottlin' up all these memories
I keep on thinkin' that you'll be home 'cause I know that's where you want to be
Like lemons in water, it's a hit of the sour, but not the good kind
There's blood in the water, I don't wanna drift farther, so I'll see you tonight
[Chorus]
It's sweet, but it's bitter, you're gone for the winter
It's a worry of mine
Like oil and water, it's the heat of the summer
It doesn't sit right
I don't wanna act like these butterflies
Aren't my worries comin' to life
Like lemons in water, it's a hit of the sour
But not the good kind
