Eileen Torrez - Bittersweet lyrics

[Verse 1] I can't untwine the threads of fate To free you from such heavy weight And I can't make the path of fortune swerve To give you what you most deserve [Chorus] But I can bring you one heartbeat At least to make it bittersweet [Verse 2] I can't unwind what time has wrought Defy the demons you have fought And I can't wipe away the tears you've cried That sank into your cheeks at night [Chorus] But I can bring my steady feet At least to make it bittersweet [Bridge] We don't have to ask why Only keep traveling on Underneath the same sky That holds the darkness with the dawn Just keep walking down this road I will follow where you go No matter where it leads [Verse 3] Not by desire or strength of will Can I defeat what hurts you still And though I'd gladly take on all your pain I can't seep the poison from your veins [Chorus] But I can bring a love complete At least to make it bittersweet
