bittersweet melodies

whispers in the grass

under slow dancing trees

birds are telling me stories

saying you were meant for me

with their bittersweet melodies

like a sweet memory

bittersweet melodies

can't go back

i can't go on

bittersweet melodies

weakened kitchen floor

snow slips under the door

tiny speakers were singing

telephone always ringing

with those bittersweet melodies

like a sweet memory

bittersweet melodies

can't go back

i can't go on

i remember us

'fore we turned to dusk

just when these feelings were all about

when we still could trust in our hearts

bittersweet melody

like a sweet memory

bittersweet melody

can't go back

i can't go on

both of us singing that same old song

with those bittersweet melody

like a sweet memory

bittersweet melody

and it seemed oh so wrong

since those bittersweet melody played for me
