The Oh Hellos – Bitter Water Chords

Oh fair and flighty love, my aerolite above
The only dove I see, could you love me more
If by the sun and moon I swore, that I would never flee?

(Well) I still taste you on my lips, lovely bitter water
The terrible fire of old regret, is honey on my tongue
And I know I shouldn’t love you, I know I shouldn’t love you, but I do

I feel it in my soul, I feel the empty hole
The cup that can’t be filled, and I feel it in my blood
In the fire and the flood, the beast that can’t be killed

Even now you mark my steps, lovely bitter water
All the days of our delights are, poison in my veins
I know I shouldn’t love you, I know…

I am not a fool entire, no, I know what is coming
You’ll bury me beneath the trees, I climbed when I was a child
I know I shouldn’t love you, I know I should’ love you, but I do
