A little light looks through her bedroom window   She dances and I dream, she's not so far as she seems   Brighter meadows, melting sunsets her hair blowing in the breeze   She can't see me watching      It's bittersweet more sweet than bitter   Bitter than sweet   It's a bittersweet surrender      It's bittersweet more sweet than bitter   Bitter than sweet   It's a bittersweet surrender      Said, "I'm older now" I work in the city we live together   But it's different than my dream   Morning light fills the room I rise and she pretends she's sleeping   Are we everything we wanted?      It's bittersweet more sweet than bitter   Bitter than sweet   It's a bittersweet surrender      It's bittersweet more sweet than bitter   Bitter than sweet   It's a bittersweet surrender      I said, I know we don't talk about it   We don't tell each other all the little things we need   We work our way around each other   As we tremble and we, as we tremble and we bleed   As we tremble and we, as we tremble and we bleed      It's bittersweet more sweet than bitter   Bitter than sweet   It's a bittersweet surrender      It's bittersweet more sweet than bitter   Bitter than sweet   It's a bittersweet surrender
