The Greg madden Project - Bittersweet Memory Lyrics

I keep a faded photo of her
I can't forget the way we were
We worked on mysteries with teenage confidence
And blurred the lines of innocence
Back then a simple kiss meant the world
When she turned sixteen she was my girl

So Sure of love from the start
So Sure we'd never be apart

She'll always be a bittersweet memory
A love forever lost to me
I can't go back I can't escape the past
Our time went so fast

After graduation it was clear
She expected marriage in the coming year
She was supportive and hopeful
As she waited on my proposal
After 3 years, she gave up on me and left
In a cold and empty, apartment I laid in bed and wept
We never dreamed of broken hearts

She'lll always be a bittersweet memory
A love forever lost to me
I can't go back I can't escape the past
Our time went so fast

In sweet dreams she keeps calling me
To a life never meant to be

So Sure of love from the start
So Sure we'd never be part
[chorus]
She's always a bittersweet memory
A love forever lost to me
I can't go back I can't escape the past
Our time went so fast

In sweet dreams she keeps calling me
To a life never meant to be
I can't correct my mistakes in the past
Our time went so fast
Oh, sure of love from the start
We never dreamed of broken hearts
