I crave the knock on my door
And the kiss from your lips
The smiles we both wore
There’s nothing better than this
You capture the words that I’d never say
And make me feel like every bit is okay
We’re bittersweet, and that’s why we’re taking it slow
That’s the part I love most
The twinkle in your eye
Mmm, the taste of your skin
Ooh, I’m really tryin
To fix the way things have been
Oh, I know we get out of control
That’s how we are
It’s taking a toll
We’re bittersweet and that’s why we’re taking it slow
That’s the part I love most
What’s the rush to make it feel right
When you leave, when I’m out of your sight
Somethin’ keeps you comin’
And now it’s a need
I’m waiting for the day
You say we’re ready
We’re both right
And we’re both wrong
Difference is that thing that’s making us stronger
We’re bittersweet and that’s why we’re taking it slow
That’s the part I love most
We’re bittersweet and that’s why we’re taking it slow
That’s the part I love
That's the part I love
That's the part I love
That's the part I love
That's the part I love most.
