Bittersweet

Bittersweet

Met you at a bar right downtown 
Your usual order was Black Label
How you looked just like Don Draper  
Boy, you were too damn good to be true
You had that honey laced mellow voice
With lustrous molten tawny eyes 
Drunk on your smoked sandalwood blend
Boy, you were too damn good to be true 

I know you’ll never stop hurting me, but
Come break my heart over and over again 

You’re the whiskey that I down  
To soothe and mend my broken heart
Feel the burn numb my pain
But you left me tasting bittersweet 

Bittersweet, bittersweet memories
Bittersweet, bittersweet memories
Bittersweet, bittersweet memories
Bittersweet, bittersweet memories

You looked so perfect suited up
No one couldn’t guess the pain you hid 
I never saw it coming true
Boy, you were too damn good to be true
You gave in to the amber shots
Was a monster deliriously drunk 
I was broken, bruised, and beaten
Boy, you were too damn good to be true

I know you’ll never stop hurting me, but
Come break my heart over and over again 

You’re the whiskey that I down 
To soothe and mend my broken heart
Feel the burn numb my pain
But you left me tasting bittersweet

Bittersweet, bittersweet memories
Bittersweet, bittersweet memories
Bittersweet, bittersweet memories
Bittersweet, bittersweet memories

I used to know a man like you  
Why couldn’t you change your ways for the better?

You’re the whiskey that I down 
To soothe and mend my broken heart
Feel the burn numb my pain
But you left me tasting bittersweet
