I took a a ride to the edge of town

Took a look at your house that they tore down

There's nothing left but rubble now

But you were there in the eye of my mind

Stood at the door of a life I left behind

I think about you all the time

But I found

Stood in one place on my home ground

That I was pot bound

And what would you do what would you do

Cos I know

Pain always comes when you grow

I knew that it was bout time though

What would you do what would you do

To go back in time and place we lost

Put back the pieces

When nothing really mattered

And hopes and dreams weren't shattered

Back into a past

We knew could never last

Not staring at the ceiling

Drowning in the feeling

Cos the world was at your feet

I'm not bitter it's just bittersweet

I'm not bitter I'm not bitter it's just bittersweet

I'm not bitter I'm not bitter, it's just bittersweet

I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter

I miss the time I could call this home

A stranger now to faces I don't know

Cos time's a place you can never go

And I see

The passage of time how it changed me

For that I'm sorry

And what would you do what would you do

Cos I know

Pain always comes when you grow

I knew that it was bout time though

What would you do what would you do (what would you do)

To go back in time and place we lost

Put back the pieces

When nothing really mattered

And hopes and dreams weren't shattered

Back into a past

We knew could never last

Not staring at the ceiling

Drowning in the feeling

Cos the world was at your feet

I'm not bitter it's just bittersweet

I'm not bitter I'm not bitter it's just bittersweet

I'm not bitter I'm not bitter, bittersweet

I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter I'm not bitter

And if you saw me

Would you ignore me

Would you turn me away

And if you saw me

Would you know me

Could we ever be the same

Take me back in time and place we lost

Put back the pieces

Before our lives got scattered

And hopes and dreams still mattered

Now you're staring at the ceiling

Drowning in the feeling

Cos the world was at your feet

I'm not bitter

I'm not bitter

I'm not biiter it's just bittersweet
