Bitter Side Of Sweet - Clint Black[00:00:00]
She asked me how love gets along[00:00:15]
With me all by myself[00:00:18]
Wonders how I keep from getting[00:00:21]
Dust upon that shelf[00:00:25]
She wanted to know how a man like me[00:00:27]
Ends up alone anyway[00:00:30]
'Was I breakin' all the rules of love[00:00:33]
And the games that people play[00:00:36]
I said not too many hangin' round[00:00:39]
Of all the ones I meet[00:00:42]
In time they always find that I'm on[00:00:46]
The bitter side of sweet[00:00:49]
She huddled on the gate on my block[00:00:58]
Where I always catch my bus[00:01:01]
An' I hoped it wouldn't stop today [00:01:04]
There'd just be the two of us[00:01:07]
But it showed up like it always does [00:01:10]
About twenty minutes late[00:01:13]
I told her it'd be right along[00:01:15]
But she said she couldn't wait[00:01:18]
She didn't need any assistance[00:01:21]
In putting some distance [00:01:24]
Between us on that empty street[00:01:25]
She was of a mind [00:01:28]
In record time that I'm on[00:01:30]
The bitter side of sweet[00:01:31]
That I act this was is really not my fault[00:01:40]
It just means all the sweet things I've got to say[00:01:46]
Come along with a grain of salt[00:01:49]
It's no wonder I'm not scoring points [00:02:48]
I'm always out of bounds[00:02:50]
If any wise willed words convince the point [00:02:53]
I'm foolish by the pound[00:02:56]
An' a fool can see no one believes[00:02:59]
What's rollin' off my tongue[00:03:03]
An' I've never seen a recipe[00:03:05]
For sweet talkin' anyone[00:03:08]
I could have written a book on[00:03:11]
The lessons I took[00:03:13]
In the agony of defeat[00:03:15]
An showed you all the signs[00:03:17]
Between the lines on[00:03:19]
The bitter side of sweet[00:03:21]
