Aretha Franklin Sweet Bitter Love song lyrics

I talked to you today, we've loved each other

For so long in that special way

And if circumstances should keep us apart

I just want you to know

That you will remain forever here in my heart

Sweet, sweet bitter love

The taste still lingers, going through my helpless fingers

You slipped away, ooh, yes you did

Sweet, sweet bitter love, what joy you told me

What pain you didn't mean to but you brought me

And so sure, baby and so sure to stay

Our magic dreams have lost their spells

And where there, where there was hope

Oh, there's an, an empty shell

Oh, sweet, na na na, na na na, na na, bitter love

Why have you awaken and then forsaken

A trusting heart like mine

My magic, my magic dreams

They've all, they've all, all lost their spells

And where there, where I had a little bit of hope

Yes sir, there is, oh look at me now, there is an empty shell

Oh, sweet, na na na, na na na, na na, bitter love

Why have you awakened and then

And then and then and then and then you know, you have forsaken

A trusting heart, yeah like mine, a trusting heart like mine

I love you boy, yes I do, like mine
