The smile on my face will not fade,

The happiness in my heart has not left,

It's just the beginning of the journey to be made,

Just the start of the game, it's time to bet,

But though my face holds a soft smile,

A smile as real as the love you've given me,

One I haven't seen in a while,

There is still a sadness that is buried deep,

It holds my heart prisoner in its caves,

Relentlessly pulling me back down,

Onto the road it, itself has paved,

Headed straight for a lake in which for me to drown.

I'm enchanted by your love,

I can't think of anything but you,

I send thanks to the gods above,

Because I don't know what I'd do,

If you'd never saved me from the fall,

I can't seem to wait for us to finally meet,

I can't help but look at it all,

You, me us, all of this as bittersweet,

It's a bittersweet enchantment with my heart on the line,

I know you'll never hurt me or leave me alone,

I know you're not just wasting my time,

I think of you the entire ride home.

Your love fills me with excitement and joy,

But the sadness keeps me from flying off the cement,

Let me tell you right now boy,

You've caught my heart in a bittersweet enchantment.

In your arms I'm at the top of the world,

A second away I'm down from cloud nine,

With you I'm the luckiest girl,

Three hours away seems like I'll never make it in time.

Bittersweet enchantment, carry me away,

Bittersweet enchantment, promise me he's mine,

Bittersweet enchantment, don't leave me today,

Bittersweet enchantment, don't make me wait on time.
