Quit romanticizing tragedy Don't fantasize eternity Just live here in reality, oh I know I'm not the easiest And sometimes you would second guess The love I hold inside my chest, for you And I never meant to let you down And I, I gotta tell you now If this ain't what it used to be Why's it taste so bittersweet? One last look before I leave I just can't believe My California's a little colder And I can't sleep in empty sheets Cause I miss when you loved me Started off so innocent It felt just like a perfect fate But nothing good is permanent, no It leaves me scarred to break your heart But makeshift love just falls apart Some nights I binge our goodbye kiss To save me from my loneliness And I, never gonna live this down And I, I gotta tell you now Oh, I gotta tell you now If this ain't what it used to be Why's it taste so bittersweet? One last look before I leave I just can't believe now That it's over Was so nice to know ya And I'll keep safe the memories But I miss when you loved me And I miss when you loved me If this ain't what it used to be Why's it taste so bittersweet? One last look before I leave Could you believe that I adore ya But I got nothing for ya So I'll just have to let you be But I miss when you loved me
