I talked to you today, we've loved each otherFor so long in that special wayAnd if circumstances should keep us apartI just want you to knowThat you will remain forever here in my heartSweet, sweet bitter loveThe taste still lingers, though through my helpless fingersYou slipped away, ooh, yes you didSweet, sweet bitter love, what joy you taught meWhat pain you didn't mean to but you brought meAnd so shall, baby and so shall it stayMy magic dreams have lost their spellAnd where there, where there was hopeOh, there is an empty shellOh, sweet, my my my, my my my, my my, bitter loveWhy have you awakened and then you've forsakenA trusting heart like mineMy magic, my magic dreamsThey've all, they've all, all lost their spellsAnd where there, where there was a little bit of hopeYes sir, there is, oh look at me now, there is an empty shellOh, sweet, my my my, my my my, my my, bitter loveWhy have you awakened and thenAnd then and then and then and then you knowyou have forsakenA trusting heart, yeah like mine, a trusting heart like mineI love you boy, yes I do, like mine
