Now weu0027ve crossed over
This doesnu0027t seem real
To win is to lose
And itu0027s hard to see
But what will be will be
I wanted more
And opened the door
I let myself out
Itu0027s hard to see
But what will be will be
Did you want it to turn out this way
It tastes bittersweet
It tastes bittersweet
Sacrifices were necessary but
This love hurts to sever
And youu0027ll be gone forever
We tried everything
We tried everything
We did nothing wrong
Did you want it to turn out this way
It tastes bittersweet
It tastes bittersweet
Sacrifices were necessary but
This love hurts to sever
And youu0027ll be gone forever
