You went away and left me broken hearted
You went away and left me here to cry
With memories and promises to ponder
Sometimes I wonder why you said goodbye

With bitter feelings, bitter thoughts of you
Bitter things in life that have come true
Neverending heartache, neverending tears
Bitter things and bitter thoughts of you

The castles are build for just we two
The dreams in life for us could all come true
Now it's up to you, make up your mind
Remember dear, you said there'd come a time

There's bitter feelings, bitter thoughts of you
Bitter things in life that have come true
Neverending heartache, neverending tears
Bitter things and bitter thoughts of you

If you would just come back to me again
I'm sure my broken heart will mend
No memories to haunt me till I die
No longer will I sit alone and cry

With bitter feelings, bitter thoughts of you
Bitter things in life that have come true
Neverending heartache, neverending tears
Bitter things and bitter thoughts of you
