Bitter Pill

Falling in love changes your ways
Love gets you high, then flies away
And I got lost inside these days
No oxygen, nowhere to breathe
There’s a warning sign hanging in town
Says «What goes up must come down»
But when you’re ready I’ll be around
Keeping you close, safe and sound
I tried to forget you but just I can’t
I thought I could move on but I’m stuck here with this
This bitter pill called love
I tried to be patient but I just can’t
I thought I could take it but I’m dying to quit
This bitter pill called love
There’s gotta be some better drug
One that doesn’t hurt so much
‘Cause your kiss hits like amphetamine
But how the rush is quick to leave me
When you’re gone there’s a phantom pain
I’m hollow now and I’m full of shame
So grab it fast, kid, before it’s gone
‘Cause every good thing I’ve had I’ve lost
I tried to forget you but just I can’t
I thought I could move on but I’m stuck here with this
This bitter pill called love
I tried to be patient but I just can’t
I thought I could take it but I’m dying to quit
This bitter pill called love
Oh
(Love, love)
Oh
(Love, love, love, love)
Saw an AM sticker on a Cadillac
I knew then I couldn’t get you back
Tried so hard to make this last
Turn the stereo up, I just had to laugh
I tried to forget you but just I can’t
I thought I could move on but I’m stuck here with this
This bitter pill called love
I tried to be patient but I just can’t
I thought I could take it but I’m dying to quit
This bitter pill called love
