Why you always want to get the best of me. I'm like a seeing-eye dog and I can't even see. They're naked and they're following my master who is blind. And my mind's gone to pieces I could use some piece of mind. So I picked up the pieces and I made a new start. Stole an old stiletto started stabbing in the dark. I can't live without it I would surely fall apart. But it's hard to make arrangements 'round a bittersweetheart. Bittersweetheart. Better get yourself a little street smart. Bittersweetheart sad but true. It's a bittersweetheart that's a hard heart to cure. It's just my bittersweetheart. It's like a suicide mission when you can't see no end. Tired of compliment-fishing and impressing your friends. I never kissed no one just to kiss and tell. It's a little bit of heaven and a whole lot of hell. In the eye of the beholder is a beautiful start. But you always seem to end up with a bittersweetheart. There's a darkness looming but the sun is shining bright. I can live to see the morning if I stay up all night. Bittersweetheart. Without a shortcut without a head-start. Bittersweetheart sad but true. It's a bittersweetheart that's a hard heart to cure. My bittersweetheart. It's the hardest part. Bittersweetheart. Are you in there are you beating. Beating me up until I'm bleeding. How much blood can you spare. Bittersweetheart. Think just a drink might get you to the good part. Lyin' in bed just a'wonderin' what to do. It's a bittersweetheart that'a a hard heart to cure. In time inside you find you always wind up with a bittersweetheart.
