A Bitter Parting - Erasure

Can’t abide our sad goodbyes

I’ll see you soon my friend

And though we are oceans apart

It seems you’re always there

I’ll catch you with a loving glance

We will have another chance

And it’s a bitter parting with such sweet sorrow

But I guess we’ll be just fine

And I wish us all a fond farewell

But just don’t look back in time

And it’s a bitter parting with such sweet sorrow

But you’re in my heart entwined

Magic is the spark of life

To make the candle burn

Lighting up the darkest night

To show which way to turn

Take me in your loving arms

Meet me in another world

And it’s a bitter parting with such sweet sorrow

But I guess we’ll be just fine

And I wish us all a fond farewell

But just don’t look back in time

And it’s a bitter parting with such sweet sorrow

But I guess we’ll be just fine

And I wish us all a fond farewell

But just don’t look back in time

And it’s a bitter parting with such sweet sorrow

But I guess we’ll be just fine

And I wish us all a fond farewell

But just don’t look back in time
