Black and blue,
Heart in two,
Perfume creeps into my room tonight.
Troubled eyes,
Make a prize,
A tear that found it's way into her life.
And now
She's sweeping up the broken dreams,
Acting out the final scene,
Savoring the bittersweet taste of love…
Keep aloof with a proof,
It's bottled up inside you on a shelf,
Sugar pill, Icy chill,
You only ache from beating up yourself…
And now
I'm buried under sympathy,
Hoping you consider me,
Drowning in a bittersweet pool of love…
Seems the more I reach,
The further I fall from reality,
Tell your love it's sweet,
But watch when you take a bite,
It may spoil your appetite
Woke today to the rain,
Trickled down between my window pane,
Nothing new,
But for you,
Another man to take the other's place,
And now,
I'm counting down the calories,
The only one that's in-between,
Choking on the bittersweet taste of love…
(Yeah) Of love (Yeah) Of love
She's sweeping up the broken dreams,
Acting out the final scene,
Savoring the bittersweet taste of love…
