Bitter Water

(Oh-oh-oh, oh)

(Oh-oh-oh, oh)

Oh, fair and flighty love

My aerolite above

The only dove I see

Could you love me more

If by the sun and moon, I swore

That I would never flee?

I still taste you on my lips

Lovely bitter water

The terrible fire of old regret is honey on my tongue

And I know I shouldn't love you

I know I shouldn't love you but I do

(Oh-oh-oh, oh)

(Oh-oh-oh, oh)

I feel it in my soul

I feel the empty hole

The cup that can’t be filled

And I feel it in my blood

In the fire and the flood

The beast that can't be killed

Even now you mark my steps

Lovely bitter water

All the days of our delights

Are poison in my veins

I know I shouldn't love you

I know

(Oh-oh)

(Oh-oh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Oh-oh)

(Oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh, oh)

(Oh-oh-oh, oh)

(Oh-oh-oh, oh)

(Oh-oh-oh, oh)

I am not a fool entire

No, I know what is coming

You'll bury me beneath the tree I climbed

When I was a child

I know I shouldn't love you

I know I shouldn't love you but I do

(Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
