Bittersweet

I could show you now,

But you're never gonna see

'Cause you're watchin' me go up in smoke

I could shut it down when I'm usually gonna leave

But you know that I'll fall all alone

The secrets that you know

And the secrets that I hold

Take these tired wings

Home is calling you to sleep

Love so bittersweet

All the happy tears it brings

Winter wind will fly it back to me

Bittersweet

I could tell you lies that I know you wanna hear,

But the words will only build a wall

Gonna wash my hands til the river runs clear

As the years go by, we rise and fall

Take these tired wings

Home is calling you to sleep

Love so bittersweet

All the happy tears it brings

Winter wind will fly it back to me

Bittersweet.

Fallin' through the cracks, never gonna see

Never gonna see

It's not coming back, not for anything,

Not for anything

I know what you need

Tellin' me you're free

We go up

Fallin' through the cracks, never gonna see

Take these tired wings

Home is calling you to sleep

Love so bittersweet

All the happy tears it brings

Winter wind will fly it back to me

Bittersweet.
