Lyrics Billy Eckstine

Billy Eckstine

The Bitter With The Sweet

I was a fool who never knew

The ways of love

I was a fool who never knew

The ways of love

Now I tell everyone I meet

Then never was a love

Without a moment of

The bitter with the sweet

And when I tell them all

The that we knew then

When all the world lay at our feet

They know I've tasted love

And craved it's wine again

The bitter with the sweet

Sometimes the young in love

Think everything must go their way

And then the young in love

Say things they never

Really mean to say

Your memory haunts me

From the moment I awake

Until I cry myself to sleep

If you were only mine again

I'd glady take the bitter with the sweet

Sometimes the young in love

Think everything must go their way

And then the young in love

Say things they never

Really mean to say

Your memory haunts me

From the moment I awake

Until I cry myself to sleep

If you were only mine again

I'd glady take the bitter with the sweet

(The bitter with the sweet)
