"THE BITTER TRUTH"

BILLY SEIDMAN / AMY TARR


The smile you're smiling
Bewitching and beguiling
Designed for head turns
For midnight trysts and slow burns
Worked each time you walked into a room
Has faded much too soon

Each romance started
Left trails of broken hearted
Your suitors begging for one more happy ending
Well your Mr. Right, you tossed him out of spite
Now each lonely night's spent longing for your youth
And that's the bitter truth, the bitter truth

The conversation stalls
No flirtatious text or calls
A finer beauty
Is permanently on duty
Now your dry martini with a splash of French vermouth
Served for one in a lonely corner booth
Can't wash away the bitter truth, the bitter truth

(BRIDGE)
Regret accepts no flowers
Can't rescue second chances from the flames
But still you whisper his name

On lonely nights spent longing for your youth
And that's the bitter truth
The bitter truth
The bitter truth
Your bitter truth
