Bitter Water

The Oh Hellos The Oh Hellos

Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh

Oh, fair and flighty love
My aerolite above
The only dove I see
Could you love me more
If by the Sun and Moon I swore
That I would never flee?

I still taste you on my lips
Lovely bitter water
The terrible fire of old regret is honey on my tongue
And I know I shouldn't love you
I know I shouldn't love you, but I do

Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh

I feel it in my soul
I feel the empty hole
The cup that can't be filled
And I feel it in my blood
In the fire and the flood
The beast that can't be killed

Even now you mark my steps
Lovely bitter water
All the days of our delights are poison in my veins
I know I shouldn't love you, I know

Oh, oh, uh, uh
Oh, oh

Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh
Whoa, oh

I am not a fool entire
No, I know what is coming
You'll bury me beneath the tree I climbed when I was a child
I know I shouldn't love you
I know I shouldn't love you, but I do
