Sweet And Salt

(album: Dulce Y Salado - 2003)

I drank both sweet and salt you gave of your body
The sweetness of your love
Left a scar upon my heart
The darkest of all kisses felt so right
My lips can still remember the salt of your sea
If only I had known that you were making light
Ah! the misery

The best is what I had with you
At least that's I thought
I was but a lie you never opened up your heart
Your kisses only hid the truth from me
While I kept falling more and more in love
You knew that in your arms I lost all reason and all rhyme
The passion you aroused in me made dizziness sublime
Heartache lay ahead I couldn't see
You called a name out loud it wasn't me

Now bittersweet the taste of sweet and salt is mine
Ah! You stole my heart so cruelly
All I have to savor is the sweetness and salt
Of the memory of a love that couldn't be

I drank both sweet and salt you gave of your body
The sweetness of your love
Left a scar upon my heart
