Take it from me
Things were difficult from the start
I can't explain
Wish I knew what I was doing wrong
So bittersweet
She's my bittersweet lover
Keep it under wraps just for me
Cause I want her, yeah
She's my lightning and my thunder
So bittersweet
So bittersweet, but I love her
HEY OH
HEY OH
So bittersweet
Bittersweet, but I love her
HEY OH
HEY OH
So bittersweet
Bittersweet, but I love her
Take it from me no one ever likes to be alone
Sick and tired of these games
I just want your love
So bittersweet
She's my bittersweet lover
Keep it under wraps just for me
Cause I want her, yeah
She's my lightning and my thunder
So bittersweet
So bittersweet, but I love her
HEY OH

Bittersweet, but I love her
HEY OH

So bittersweet
Bittersweet, but I love her
Still takin' time for the space that we needed
She's gone insane
Memories dance around my head
I'm so dizzy
I don't wanna come down
So bittersweet
She's my bittersweet lover
Keep it under wraps just for me

She's my lightning and my thunder
So bittersweet
So bittersweet, but I love her
HEY OH

Overall Meaning

The song "Bittersweet" by Gothic Metal Ballads Vol.1 is a melancholic ballad about a tumultuous romantic relationship. The lyrics suggest that the singer has been in a relationship with someone who is difficult to be with, yet they cannot help but love them. The singer is aware that things have been difficult from the beginning, but they cannot quite put their finger on what went wrong. However, the love they share is intense and undeniably strong - the partner is described as the singer's "lightning and thunder." The chorus, "So bittersweet, but I love her" sums up the complexity of the singer's emotions towards their partner - a mix of pain and sweetness that they cannot escape from.

I'm giving up the ghost of love
And a shadow is cast on devotion
She is the one that I adore
Queen of my silent suffocation
Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny
Bittersweet
I won't give up
I'm possessed by her
I'm bearing a cross
She's turned into my curse
Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny
Bittersweet, I want you
Oh, how I wanted you
And I need you
How I needed you
Oh, break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny
Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny
Bittersweet
