Bittersweet Romance (Original)

[Verse 1] You showed up late to the party Sneakers on Jacket in your hand Told me you hated the small talk But you stayed and you danced with your plans [Pre-Chorus] You kiss me like a promise Then you pull away You run You say you’re scared of burning But you’re staring at the sun [Chorus] Bittersweet romance We’re sugar on a slow crash Laughing while we both know We’re playing with a car crash Hold me like you mean it Lose me in a quick glance Hurts and it feels so right This bittersweet romance (oh yeah) [Verse 2] We talk in half-finished sentences Turn our phones over on the floor You trace your name on my shoulder Like you’re writing “leave” on the door [Pre-Chorus] You promise me the weekend Then disappear by Monday You say you hate the ending But you love the halfway [Chorus] Bittersweet romance We’re sugar on a slow crash Laughing while we both know We’re playing with a car crash Hold me like you mean it Lose me in a quick glance Hurts and it feels so right This bittersweet romance [Bridge] You spin me ‘round Spin me ‘round Tell me “this is the last time” Then you’re back in my arms On the wrong side of midnight If it’s gonna break me Baby Let it break loud (hey!) Turn it up Burn it out Till there’s nothing left now [Chorus] Bittersweet romance We’re sugar on a slow crash Laughing while we both know We’re playing with a car crash Hold me like you mean it Lose me in a quick glance Hurts and it feels so right This bittersweet romance Bittersweet romance Yeah We’re dancing on thin glass Cut up but we still move We live for the whiplash Hold me like you mean it Love me like it’s last chance Cry while we kiss goodnight Our bittersweet romance
