lyrics

The light in the hallway’s blown
And we can’t see where we’re going
My hands are like blocks of ice
The January moon is bright
The tread on the stair’s all worn
And we’re on the topmost floor
Some lyrics are in my head
But I crash out on the bed

Bittersweet memories
You looked out for me
And we made things all our own
The bittersweet melody that you played to me
But the tune you started just faded out
Bittersweet memories
We were young and free
And we lived it our own way
The bittersweet melody that you played to me
But the tune you started just faded out

I’m strumming on my 12 string
And I’m slightly panicking
The dressing room lends a hand
We splash rhythms from the tap
You ask me about my songs
It’s like the cat got my tongue
And then ‘See my baby jive’
I laughed until I cried

Bittersweet memories
You looked out for me
And we made things all our own
The bittersweet melody that you played to me
But the tune you started just faded out
Bittersweet memories
We were young and free
And we lived it our own way
The bittersweet melody that you played to me
But the tune you started just faded out

I’m having a smoke or two
You’re pacing about the room
People roll in for the show
Like ships in the night they go

Bittersweet memories
You looked out for me
And we made things all our own
The bittersweet melody that you played to me
But the tune you started just faded out
Bittersweet memories
We were young and free
And we lived it our own way
The bittersweet melody that you played to me
But the tune you started just faded out
