paroles de chanson It's A Bitter Pill To Swallow - Marvin Gaye

Hey hey
Oh oh
My my my my
Oh oh oh

Here I stand lonely, just a heartbroken guy
I used to be a laugher, ′til I made my baby cry
And I knew my baby loved me, I was overconfident
So I did her wrong, now she's gone, I don′t know which way she went

Oh
My baby forgave me so much time and time and time again
'Cause when your baby starts to walk away
And tells you no need to follow
And nothing you do, seems to make her stay
It's a bitter pill to have to swallow

That the way the ball bounces, that′s the way the cookie crumbles
From the top to the bottom, that′s a long way to tumble
Oh when you realize that you're no longer first on your baby′s list
And the home you thought you had forever no longer exists
Oh

You wake up and you discover what a great fool you have been
Oh oh baby
I-I-I know I know
I know it's a bitter pill to have to swallow

(Bitter pill to swallow)
(Bitter pill to swallow)
(Bitter pill to swallow)
(Bitter pill to swallow)

Ooh baby, what kind of fool am I?
To know that you love me and yet I made you cry
Baby when I think it over
It′s my fault that I'm here, gone
But if I could do it over
I would leave her some love to live on
And on and on

Oh darling you forgave me so much time and time and time again
′Cause when your baby starts to walk away (oh oh)
And tells you no need to follow (yes it is, yes it is)
And nothing you do, seems to make her stay (oh yeah)
I know it's a bitter pill to have to swallow
When your baby starts to walk away (oh)
And tells you no need to follow (oh yeah)
