Bittersweet

Two kids on a hollow log, days of innocents
Taste of that first kiss, bubble gum and licorice
Summer faded little boy moved away
Station wagon wheels, she stood and watched him wave
Love can leave you just like time, it gives then it takes

Chorus:

The good, the bad, makes you happy, and just a little sad
Maybe all your hopes and dreams and Memories
Are meant to be

Bitter sweet, bitter sweet

Two women in the kitchen, secrets by the stove
Stories Grandma told, man they could curl your toes
A young woman tryin’ to hang on to the light
From her Grandma’s eyes, while she was alive
Love can leave you just like time, it gives then it takes

Chorus:


Bridge:

Oh, they hang on your tongue like summer wine
Before the seasons change
Come and go, like hello goodbye, like the sun will die
Just to rise and live another day

Solo:

Chorus:

The good, the bad, makes you happy, and just a little sad
Maybe all your hopes and dreams and Memories
Like fruit that falls to earth from the tree
They’re meant to be
Bitter sweet, bitter sweet
