bittersweet

Dolly Parton

Is it time to say hello or say goodbye?
Couldn't count the countless times that we have tried
Do we try to try again or take defeat?
Either way, it's bittersweet

We love each other, there's no question there
No question there
But hate each other when we don't fight fair
We don't fight fair
Lately there's more hating
as our world shakes 'neath our feet
To say the least, it's bittersweet

All the things we loved each other
for at first, we now despise
The passion and the tenderness now fades before our eyes
We've tested all the waters, but have we gone too deep?
To say the least, it's bittersweet

Bittersweet, bittersweet
Separate the chaff from wheat
Is our love now obsolete?
Oh-oh, it's bittersweet
There's more bitterness than sweetness
In the words that we now speak
Oh-oh, it's bittersweet
It's bittersweet

Is it time to say hello or say goodbye?
Oil and water, venom, honey, dark and light
Is it time to say hello or say goodbye?
We're oil and water, venom, honey, dark and light

Deep devotion, mixed emotion
Deep devotion, mixed emotion
A painful mix, indeed
A painful mix, indeed
To say the least, it's bittersweet
It's bittersweet
Bittersweet, bittersweet

Standing on the edge now, do we go or stay?
Do we go? Do we stay?
Will we live to regret it if we just walk away?
Will we if we just walk away?
It's a painful hard decision
but it's one that we must make, oh

Oh
Bittersweet
So bittersweet
It's bittersweet
Bittersweet
Oh, oh, it's bittersweet
Oh, oh, bittersweet
Bittersweet
Bittersweet
Bittersweet
