Bittersweet

A song written for a ukulele forum

Lyrics: Bittersweet

tears of joy 
a sorrow laced smile
bittersweet moments 
from a bittersweet life

light and shade
pleasure and pain
without contrast there is no meaning

tears of joy 
a sorrow laced smile
bittersweet moments 
from a bittersweet life

joy and sorrow
bittersweet
i just want the balance right

tears of joy 
a sorrow laced smile
bittersweet moments 
from a bittersweet life

i want more pleasure than pain
more up than down
more joy than sorrow

tears of joy 
a sorrow laced smile
bittersweet moments 
from a bittersweet life
