Bitter Honey

Roger Nichols, Paul Williams

[Verse 1]
I should have known
You would treat me this way
I should have known
I should've stayed alone

[Verse 2]
Now, if I'd just used my head
I'd have sent you away
If only somehow
I knew what I know now

[Chorus]
Your love is bitter honey
Sweet and sour
Bitter honey
A sometimes thing
Bitter honey
I know your power

[Post-Chorus]
I asked you to leave
But I never let you
I learned to forgive
But not forget you

[Verse 3]
It must be love
That has kept me this way
It made me your slave
It made me behave

[Verse 4]
Oh, it's not love at its best
But it could be some day
I'll wait and I'll see
'Cause you're worth it to me

[Chorus]
Your love is bitter honey
Sweet and sour
Bitter honey
A sometimes thing
Bitter honey
I know your power

[Post-Chorus]
I asked you to leave
But I never let you
I learned to forgive
But I can't forget you

[Chorus]
Bitter honey
Sweet, sweet and sour
Bitter honey
A sometimes thing
Bitter honey
I know your power

[Post-Chorus]
I asked you to leave
But I never let you
I'm gonna forgive
But not forget you

[Chorus]
Bitter honey
Sweet and sour
Bitter honey
A sometimes thing
Bitter honey
I know your power
