[Verse 1] You remind me of a jellyfish Beautiful, but it stings I should've known from the first touch You don't mean the same things You said goodbye like a soft alarm Quiet, but it shook my bones Now the fridge hums through the evening And I eat in the dark alone [Pre-Chorus] I miss the way you said my name Like you knew I would stay And I hate that I still smile At the ghost of your face [Chorus] We were gold, we were gone Still I sing that song Bittersweet, bittersweet You hurt me sweetly We were bright, then we broke Like a laugh in the smoke Bittersweet, bittersweet You hurt me sweetly [Verse 2] I miss the tenderness of knowing I never had to try I keep reaching for the right words But they crumble at my feet There were clean white cups on Sunday A little mess, a little grace Now the table's set for one more And your shadow takes your place [Pre-Chorus] I miss the way you said my name Like you knew I would stay And I hate that I still smile At the ghost of your face [Chorus] We were gold, we were gone Still I sing that song Bittersweet, bittersweet You hurt me sweetly We were bright, then we broke Like a laugh in the smoke Bittersweet, bittersweet You hurt me sweetly [Bridge] Maybe that's love, maybe that's pain Maybe it's both in the same small frame I let you go, I let you live But some days my heart won't forgive [Final Chorus] We were gold, we were gone Still I sing that song Bittersweet, bittersweet You hurt me sweetly We were bright, then we broke Like a laugh in the smoke Bittersweet, bittersweet You hurt me sweetly
