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
