Bittersweet
Sam Soto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You′re so damn bittersweet
Makin' out on the balcony
You′re so damn incomplete
Telling everyone how to be
I've been feeling every single type of way

Maybe it's all in your head
Maybe it′s just your regret
Maybe you need to forget
I just wanna keep you dancing
I′ve been all on my own, but I
I'll wait the night for you

And I don′t even care about the summer
Nothing seems to hold itself together
I just wanna feel this way forever
I don't think I′ll ever find another

Oh, oh-oh-oh, I'll wait the night for you
Oh, oh-oh-oh, I′ll wait the night for you

You're so damn bittersweet
Drink a pink lemonade, you'll see
I think you′re just like me (just like me, just like me)
Keeping me on my two feet
Even on this cloudy day

Maybe it′s all in your head
Maybe it's just your regret
Maybe you need to forget
I just wanna keep you dancing
I′ve been all on my own, but I
I'll wait the night for you (ooh)

I don′t even care about the summer
Nothing seems to hold itself together
I just wanna feel this way forever
I don't think I′ll ever find another





Oh, oh-oh-oh, I'll wait the night for you
Oh, oh-oh-oh, I'll wait the night for you

Overall Meaning

In Sam Soto's song "Bittersweet," the lyrics capture the mixed emotions of being with someone who is both captivating and confusing. The first verse speaks to the other person's duality in being both "bittersweet" and "incomplete." The singer is conflicted because despite feeling "every single type of way" about this person, they are unsure of where they stand with them. The following lines suggest that this person may be projecting their own issues onto others, hence why they are "telling everyone how to be."


The chorus continues to emphasize the singer's confusion and desire to hold onto this connection, no matter how tumultuous. They are willing to "wait the night" for this person, even if it means sacrificing their own needs and desires. The lines "I don't even care about the summer / Nothing seems to hold itself together" suggest that this relationship is a source of stability in an otherwise uncertain world. The singer acknowledges that this person is not perfect and that their attraction may be rooted in fantasy rather than reality. However, they are still unable to let go, as expressed in the final line "I don't think I'll ever find another."


Overall, "Bittersweet" portrays the complexity of human relationships and the difficulty of letting go of someone who has an undeniable hold on one's heart. It speaks to the universal experience of being drawn to someone who is flawed and unpredictable, yet impossible to resist.
