Bittersweet Melodies
Feist · Metals [2011]
Whispers in the grass
Under slow dancing trees
Birds are telling me stories
Saying you were meant for me
With their bittersweet melodies
Like a sweet memory
Bittersweet melodies
Can't go back, I can't go on (without those)
Bittersweet melodies
Weakened kitchen floor
Snow slips under the door
Tiny speakers were singing
Telephone always ringing
With those bittersweet melodies
Like a sweet memory
Bittersweet melodies
Can't go back, I can't go on
I remember us
'fore we turn to dusk
Just when these feelings were all about
When we still could trust
in our hearts
Bittersweet memory
Like a sweet melody
Bittersweet memories
Can't go back, I can't go on
Both of us singing that same old song
With those bittersweet memories
Like a bittersweet melody
Bittersweet memories
And it seemed oh so wrong
Since those bittersweet melodies
played for me
Under slow dancing trees
Birds are telling me stories
Saying you were meant for me
With their bittersweet melodies
Like a sweet memory
Bittersweet melodies
Can't go back, I can't go on (without those)
Bittersweet melodies
Weakened kitchen floor
Snow slips under the door
Tiny speakers were singing
Telephone always ringing
With those bittersweet melodies
Like a sweet memory
Bittersweet melodies
Can't go back, I can't go on
I remember us
'fore we turn to dusk
Just when these feelings were all about
When we still could trust
in our hearts
Bittersweet memory
Like a sweet melody
Bittersweet memories
Can't go back, I can't go on
Both of us singing that same old song
With those bittersweet memories
Like a bittersweet melody
Bittersweet memories
And it seemed oh so wrong
Since those bittersweet melodies
played for me
