Bittersweet

I didn’t anticipate it

To only take a minute

To leave me here alone

To leave me in the cold

I thought that I’d be happy

And smiling, maybe laughing

But I find myself just sitting

Thinking about what I’m missing

To think I waited for this

To think that this was my wish

It’s stops the spinning of the world

When I here you saying “she’s my girl”

I see myself as so weak

When you’re kissing her on the cheek

I’m feeling like a foreigner

When I creep around the corner

To sneak one look at you today

I’m aching more and more each day

I honestly don’t know what to believe

And babe it kills me just to see

That maybe you can live without

My hand on yours without a doubt

My steady heartbeat’s now offbeat

And freedom tastes so bittersweet
