Bittersweet Emotion
Nobody knows
Ain't no one who cares
Just where that we came up from
Nobody who dares
Raise questions of your thinking
You're the word out on the street
You play it by your own rules
And break them up into a beat
Bittersweet emotion
I'd walk all of that way but you just ain't got the time
Back in the days
When we rolled into town
Threw the gang some small change
They shut the whole place down
All over the dancefloor
I got caught up in your wheel
Then you kicked off those boots
And I knew it was for real
Bittersweet emotion
I'd walk all of that way but you just won't get the time
We were friends back then
Do you remember when?
I saw you for the first time
Never again
I met you in the Courtyard for a game of pool
Where did all that time go?
I haven't seen you since school
Half of my life
I've been waiting here on you
But I just didn't see it
Cause that's just what we do
People say the right things
And tell you what you want to hear
But we talk without speaking
And you can always hold me near
Bittersweet emotion
There was so much left to say but we didn't get the time
Sweet emotion
We could make it all the way
The doors are open after nine
Ain't no one who cares
Just where that we came up from
Nobody who dares
Raise questions of your thinking
You're the word out on the street
You play it by your own rules
And break them up into a beat
Bittersweet emotion
I'd walk all of that way but you just ain't got the time
Back in the days
When we rolled into town
Threw the gang some small change
They shut the whole place down
All over the dancefloor
I got caught up in your wheel
Then you kicked off those boots
And I knew it was for real
Bittersweet emotion
I'd walk all of that way but you just won't get the time
We were friends back then
Do you remember when?
I saw you for the first time
Never again
I met you in the Courtyard for a game of pool
Where did all that time go?
I haven't seen you since school
Half of my life
I've been waiting here on you
But I just didn't see it
Cause that's just what we do
People say the right things
And tell you what you want to hear
But we talk without speaking
And you can always hold me near
Bittersweet emotion
There was so much left to say but we didn't get the time
Sweet emotion
We could make it all the way
The doors are open after nine
