Well I've traveled around the earth and still I wonder if I'm the first
Human being who questions his worth
Bittersweetheart, bittersweetheart
You've been good to me
You've been good to me
You've been good to me
Bittersweetheart, bittersweetheart
Bittersweetheart, bittersweetheart
For I'll sit in the river and let the water creep
Bittersweetheart, bittersweetheart
You've been good to me
Bittersweetheart, bittersweetheart
You've been good to me
For often this outlook on life can be bleak
Bittersweetheart, bittersweetheart
You've been good to me
And every Sunday I sleep and pray that my soul will keep
Bittersweetheart, bittersweetheart
And every word that you speak makes my heart sing when it's weak
