Roxy Music - Bitter - Sweet Lyrics
(ferry/mackay)Well this is suchA sad affairI´ve opened up my heartSo many timesBut now it´s closedOh my dearEvery salted tearIt wringsBitter - sweet applauseBut when the show´s in full swingEvery once in a whileHigh stepping chorus linesMean i´m forgettingMein lullaby - liebchenHow rich in contrastLove can beSometimes i´m quite amusedTo see it twist and turnTo taste - both sweet and dryThese vintage years!Lovers you consume, my friendAs others their wineNein - das ist nichtDas ende der weltGestrandet an leben und kunstUnd das spiel geht weiterWie man weissNoch viele schönste...wiedershenAnd now, as you turn to leaveYou try to force a smile -As if to compensate -Then you break down and cry
