Sweetnesses from Yesterday

in some moments of time
I see the past and how I loved you
and those moments that come are bitter-sweet

with the taste that is sweet,
a taste I wish will last forever,
comes a bitter regret from memory

time - let me treasure what I had
time - take the bitterness away
let me remember in my heart
only sweetnesses from yesterday

what's the point of raking the past,
sifting through unmendable broken pieces ?
let the remnants lie where they lie -
and make of them a beautiful memory

with the taste that is sweet,
a taste I wish will last forever,
comes a bitter regret from memory

time - let me treasure what I had
time - take the bitterness away
let me remember in my heart
only sweetnesses from yesterday

that's all I want to remember
