Bittersweet is that sour taste in your mouth
When your emotions run dry
And your words have run out
Knowing what's done is done
That there's nothing to do
It's time to move on
Bittersweet is that aching you feel
When dream becomes reality
But the truth isn't real
Seeing those signs that destroy
Goodbye, one I loved
Tearing each girl and boy
Bittersweet, the nostalgic memories
That live in the back of your mind
Being tossed by the seas
Realizing you're finally alone
Unsure of where to go
Because you lost what was best known
But bittersweet isn't all bitter
For the sweet is still there
Hidden in the discouraging litter
Bringing sunshine to life
And warming the heart
Knowing you did something right
The sweet is the trembling happiness felt
When you strengthen your mind
And your heart never melts
Yes, saying goodbye now
Will lead to things greater
And brighter around
Bittersweet is corse
But it's also freeing
For better or worse
You just have to let go
So you can start seeing
And finally believing
It's for the better.
