Can't tell where the sky begins
And the water ends;
No clouds to hide the sun.
Waves playing me
A symphony upon the sand
As I lay drifting on the ocean
With this bottle in my hand...
Sat down on the boardwalk
For a little while:
Your memory, my company.
Something 'bout this place
Had a way to make you smile...
You always loved this island breeze.
The wind whistling 'cross my bottle
Still can't blow away the sorrow
That tomorrow you won't be here, with me.
So I raise it up and toast
The day we met and won't forget
The way you love me,
The amazing way you love me...
It's bittersweet, you see:
You're not here but I can feel you.
Every memory is on the tip of my tongue...
Close my eyes, see your face
Hold on tight to yesterday
Praying when I wake, it was just a dream.
It's bittersweet...
Doctor said there's nothing we can do
Took my hand, said "take me home"
To the only place with half a chance
To take the pain away...
"Make me feel alive before I go..."
You said: "life is only borrowed,
So let's wash away our sorrow
That tomorrow I won't be here, with you.
Go and live your life with no regrets
And don't forget how much I love you...
I love you..."
It's bittersweet, you see:
You're not here but I can feel you.
Every memory is on the tip of my tongue...
Close my eyes, see your face
Hold on tight to yesterday
Praying when I wake, it was just a dream.
It's bittersweet...
I brought you back just like you wanted
So you don't ever have to leave.
When I poured you 'cross the southern sky
I couldn't help but to cry:
I know you finally got your wings!
Bitter, bittersweet...
Bittersweet... Oh!
The wind whistling 'cross my bottle
Still can't blow away the sorrow
That tomorrow you won't be here, with me.
So I raise it up and toast
The day we met and won't forget
The way you love me,
The amazing way you love me...
