bitter with the sweet
bitter with the sweet

Maybe you need to mix in some bitter
To say goodbye to the sweet
Maybe you need the cold to remember
Why you had to leave the heat
The first farewell, in truth
Was nary but soft compromise
With questions unanswered and me
Forgetting why I bid you goodbye
But I remember now, know it so
I remember it all too well
I only saw heaven then, only heaven
And forgot the dread cold of hell
You've mixed in some bitter with the sweet, now
And I'm thankful you'll not make me forget
What it's like to be cold and buried
And worse, to go through it again
I'm afraid I'll forget the sweet, just as easy
Just as easy as I forgot the bitter
But if we weren't meant to be, I wonder
If remembering only the bitter would be better.
