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 (without those)
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
