You are my sword
Your love is its own reward
My heart, I have found
Get's carved surely by the pound
God knows, I tried
Tried to hold you with all my might
But time has won
And I could never be that strong
(Don't cry)
I couldn't be that strong
(Don't cry)
That used to be my favorite song
(Don't cry)
Tears so bittersweet
(Don't cry)
Fill my eyes whenever we meet
It's always bittersweet
I cut and I bleed
You seem to find that so hard to believe
Well, that's just too, too bad
You could never touch the love that we had
(Don't cry)
For the love we had
(Don't cry)
Sometimes we try to take it back
(Don't cry)
Tears so bittersweet
(Don't cry)
Then kiss my cheeks whenever we meet
It's always bittersweet
(Don't Cry)
For a love gone wrong
(Don't cry)
That used to be my favorite song
(Don't cry)
Tears so bittersweet
(Don't cry)
Fill my eyes whenever we meet
Anyway
We've grown and times change
When we meet now it feels so strange
Well, I hold you like a sword
And you won't cut me, cut me like you did before

What is the meaning behind Bittersweet lyrics?
When we try to interpret the meaning, Hoodoo Gurus' 'Bittersweet' is a song that narrates an intense love affair, which ultimately led to heartbreak. The words reveal the combination of feelings: remembering the good times, being hurt, and finally being ok with it, which is represented by the metaphor of love being a sword that cuts deep but is now held slowly to prevent any more pain coming. The lyrics of Bittersweet mainly highlight the concepts of heartbreak, reflection, love, nostalgia, and angst. Simultaneously, the song underlines the significance of bittersweet love, loss and desire, and transformation and maturation. The lyrics encapsulate the themes of love and emotional suffering, which might need to be supervised by parents for younger children. Although there are no direct implications of violence, sex, or drugs, the emotional charge coupled with the reference to bleeding might be perceived as slightly mature. ✔️
