lyrics

I Know Passion Has a Bitter Taste

Last night when you called
I sure wasn’t home
To take your heart in a bottle
Dropping liquor on my bedroom’s floor
I’m so innocent of your crimes
So that I couldn’t write a song about it
I let it all to the dead leaves
That you buried on your skin when he was gone
I know passion has a bitter taste
A little better with a bit of wine
Like if the rain didn’t matter
But without it we would be just fine
And if I spoke my soul so you could see it, and like
Every word a chance to breathe it, and I
Knew exactly how to feel it, would I
Have every second of your time?
Sing it girl

Lost calls and broken glasses
Still not the man you want me to be, baby
I’m not sure of all the flaws and traces
On the man you want me to be, that’s right
You’re on the rug
Trying to be the man you want me to be
And I’m so dead wrong
No, no, no
Yes I’m so dead wrong
‘Cause I don’t know you at all

I know passion has a bitter taste
A little better with a bit of wine
Like if the rain didn’t matter
But without it we would be just fine
And if I spoke my soul so you could see it, and like
Every word a chance to breathe it, and I
Knew exactly how to feel it, would I
Have every second of your time?
Sing it girl

Lost calls and broken glasses
Still not the man you want me to be, baby
I’m not sure of all the flaws and traces
On the man you want me to be, that’s right
You’re on the rug
Trying to be the man you want me to be
And I’m so dead wrong
No, no, no
Yes I’m so dead wrong
‘Cause I don’t know you at all
