sweet and salt

i drank both sweet and salt you gave of your body

the sweetness of your love

left a scar upon my heart

the darkest of all kisses felt so right

my lips can still remember the salt of your sea

if only i had known that you were making light

ah! the misery

the best is what i had with you

at least that's i thought

i was but a lie you never opened up your heart

your kisses only hid the truth from me

while i kept falling more and more in love

you knew that in your arms i lost all reason and all rhyme

the passion you aroused in me made dizziness sublime

heartache lay ahead i couldn't see

you called a name out loud it wasn't me

now bittersweet the taste of sweet and salt is mine

ah! you stole my heart so cruelly

all i have to savor is the sweetness and salt

of the memory of a love that couldn't be

i drank both sweet and salt you gave of your body

the sweetness of your love

left a scar upon my heart
