You are my sword

Your love is its own reward

My heart, I have found

Gets carved up by the pound

God knows I tried

To hold you with all my might

But time has won

And I could never be that strong

(Don't cry) I couldn't be that strong

(Don't cry) That used to be my favorite song

(Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet

(Don't cry) Fill my eyes whenever we meet

It's always bittersweet

I cut and I bleed

You seem to find that so hard to believe

That's just too, too bad

You could never touch the love that we had

(Don't cry) For the love we had

(Don't cry) For a love gone wrong

(Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet

(Don't cry) Fill my eyes whenever we meet

It's always bittersweet

(Don't cry) For a love gone wrong

(Don't cry) That used to be my favorite song

(Don't cry) Tears so bittersweet

We've grown and times change

When we meet now it feels so strange

I hold you like a sword

You won't cut me like you did before

It's always bittersweet

It's always bittersweet

It's always bittersweet

Bittersweet, bittersweet

It's always...

It's always bittersweet

It's always bittersweet
