Lyrics: Paul Williams. Bitter Honey.

I should have known that you would treat me this way
I should have known I should have stayed alone
If I just used my head I'd have sent you away
If only somehow I knew what I know now


You love is bitter honey, sweet and sour
Bitter honey, you sometime thing
Bitter honey I know your power
I've asked you to leave but never let you
I learned to forgive but not forget you

It must be love that has kept me this way
It made me your slave, it made me behave
It's not love at its best but could have been some day
I'll wait and I'll see, you're worth it to me

I love you, bitter honey, sweet and sour
Bitter honey, you sometime thing
Bitter honey I know your power
I've asked you to leave but never let you
I learned to forgive but not forget you


Bitter honey, sweet and sour
Bitter honey, you sometime thing
Bitter honey, I know your power
Bitter honey, I've felt your sting
