I can hear a bitter melody Thinking of the love I left behind All the pain of love became a song baby Still the sweetness lingers on That's why I've got this bittersweet soul music to sing for you Nothing but bittersweet soul music through and through Love is such a fragile thing to bear If you've found it handle it with care oh no no It's so easy for a heart to break now It only takes just one mistake (one mistake to make) That's why I've got this bittersweet soul music to sing for you Nothing but bittersweet soul music through and through That's why I've got this bittersweet soul music to sing for you Nothing but bittersweet soul music through and through I should have been all through after the love we knew Ended in such bitterness and pain yeah ah But if I could relive one sweet moment with you ah I would do it all over do it all over again And so the story goes my whole life through Love affairs will end then start anew And when the pain of love becomes a song Then the sweetness lingers on That's why I've got this bittersweet soul music to sing for you Nothing but bittersweet soul music through and through That's why I've got this bittersweet soul music to sing for you Nothing but bittersweet soul music through and through Yes I do I got music for you girl Every day now Bittersweet soul music I've got I've got this music Yeah yes I do for you girl Bittersweet soul music
