Ode to a Love Struck Bench

Bittersweet

Watch as my tears fall to the beat
While I wait it out just to make ends meet
Can't say that I'm with you
When I'm not with you
Isn't love so bittersweet?

Watch as my tears fall to the beat
While I try my hardest to be discreet.
Don't you know that it's hard
When we're so far apart
Divided by asphalt and cold concrete.

Watch as my tears fall with the words
To the most beautiful song that you've ever heard
They drip on the table
Ever so graceful
To the harmonies of the fifths and thirds.

Watch as my tears fall from my face
And land where they seem the most out of place
They quietly roll,
Undisturbed, uncontrolled
And finally vanish to interstellar space.

Watch as my tears sit on my cheeks
And reflect how I look and you act so bleak
Don't you know that it hurts
When it all reverts
And the two of us rarely speak.

Watch as my tears fall offbeat
The song ends suddenly and feels incomplete
It resembles us two
With our bond all askew
Isn't love so bittersweet?
