Hoodoo Gurus Bittersweet Lyrics

Bittersweet Lyrics

You are my sword.

Your love is its own reward.

My heart, I have
found,

Gets carved surely by the pound.



God knows. I
tried,

Tried to hold you with all my might

But time has won,

And I could never be that strong.

(Don't cry) I couldn't be that
strong,

(Don't cry) That used to be my favourite song.

(Don't cry)
Tears so bittersweet

Fill my eyes whenever we meet,

It's always
bittersweet.



I cut and I bleed.

You seem to find that so
hard to believe!

That's just too, too bad.

You could never touch
the love that we had.



(Don't cry) For the love we had,

(Don't cry) Sometimes we try to take it back.

(Don't cry) Tears so
bittersweet

Kiss my cheeks whenever we meet.

It's always
bittersweet.



(Don't Cry) For a love-gone-wrong

(Don't cry)
That used to be my favourite song

(Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet

Kiss my eyes whenever we meet.

Anyway...



We've grown and
times change.

When we meet now it feels so strange.

I hold you like
a sword

You won't cut me like you did before.

It's always
bittersweet.
