Bittersweet Love
Verse 1 Em Let me tell ya ‘bout a girl C With candy eyes and a sugar smile G She had a taste that made me wild D A bittersweet love for a while Chorus Em Bittersweet love, you’re my sweet virus C Got me crazy, oh, you’re the finest G Bittersweet love, can't deny this D You’re my sweet virus, my sweet virus Verse 2 Em She had a voice that felt like silk C Words that flowed like honey milk G She was the queen, I was the ilk D A bittersweet love, smooth and sleek Chorus Em Bittersweet love, you’re my sweet virus C Got me crazy, oh, you’re the finest G Bittersweet love, can't deny this D You’re my sweet virus, my sweet virus Bridge Am We danced in the rain, laughed in the sun F She was the melody, I was the drum C But like a sweet virus, she was gone D Leaving me with a song Chorus Em Bittersweet love, you’re my sweet virus C Got me crazy, oh, you’re the finest G Bittersweet love, can't deny this D You’re my sweet virus, my sweet virus Outro Em So here’s to the girl with the candy eyes C To the bittersweet love that never dies G She was my sweet virus, my sweet surprise D And this is her lullaby
Biggest fan
"There's something delightfully infectious about their music. It's an unlikely blend of punk-inspired energy and bubblegum pop that somehow works. The lyrics are relatable, and their melodies are catchy - they're the kind of band that you can't help but sing along to. Sweet Virus is my favorite because they've taken their influences and created a sound that is entirely their own. They've brought a fresh perspective to the pop-rock genre, and it's impossible not to get caught up in their energy and enthusiasm for music."
