Bittersweet
Nicky Romero Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me, what can I do?
I tried my best but I just can't get over you
It's fucked up, it's true
And I did the right thing but my heart is still confused

All alone with a mind full of memories
That I'll never find a way to forget, no
This regret keeps attacking like an enemy
I can't fight because it's all in my head

I want you to know
What we had was a dream but now I'm losing sleep and control
'Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
'Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet
'Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet

Tell me, I need somebody new
But everyone I meet just makes me think of you
And it's fucked up, 'cause it's true
I started hating myself for letting go of you

All alone with a mind full of memories
That I'll never find a way to forget, no
This regret keeps attacking like an enemy
I can't fight because it's all in my head

I want you to know
What we had was a dream but now I'm losing sleep and control
'Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
'Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet




'Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet

Lyrics according to the internet:


Tell me, what can I do
I tried my best but I just can't get over you
It's fucked up, its true
And I did the right thing but my heart is still confused

All alone with a mind full of memories
And I'll never find a way to forget, no
This regret keeps are tucking like an enemy
I can't fight because its all in my head

I want you to know
What we had was a dream
And the world doesn't seem in control
Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet
I'm bittersweet

Tell me, I need somebody new
But everyone I meet just makes me think of you
And it's fucked up, cause its true
And I thought of hating myself cos of letting go of you

All alone with a mind full of memories
And I'll never find a way to forget, no
This regret keeps re tucking like an enemy
I can't fight because its all in my head

And I want you to know
What we had was a dream
And the world doesn't seem in control

Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
Cause I told you to leave but without you I'm bittersweet
