BITTER MEMORY words and music by Dean Bohana ©2025

There's just one thing I've got to know...don't turn your head and walk away from me...if that's the way it's gonna go, then let us fade into a bitter memory.

IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA GO THEN I DO NOT EXPECT TO SEE YOU FIGHT FOR ME...
IF THAT'S THE WAY IT'S GONNA GO, THEN LET US FADE INTO A BITTER MEMORY!

You cannot call me on the phone, you'll never find me where we used to go and hide...
and I just might not be alone, I'll do my best to leave my memory behind..

IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA GO THEN I DO NOT EXPECT TO SEE YOU FIGHT FOR ME...
IF THAT'S THE WAY IT'S GONNA GO, THEN LET US FADE INTO A BITTER MEMORY!

Now you're alone who are you gonna cry to,
you'd never think you'd ever need somebody who can understand the complex woman that you are, but the bridge has burned and the river's too far!

IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA GO
IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA GO
IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA GO
IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA GO!

Theres one more thing I have to know...why do you take that nasty attitude with me? 'cause if you wanna stage a show, you'll burn it deep into my bitter memory!

IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA GO THEN I DO NOT EXPECT TO SEE YOU FIGHT FOR ME...
IF THAT'S THE WAY IT'S GONNA GO, THEN LET US FADE INTO A BITTER MEMORY!
IF THAT'S THE WAY ITS GONNA GO THEN I DO NOT EXPECT TO SEE YOU FIGHT FOR ME...
IF THAT'S THE WAY IT'S GONNA GO, THEN LET US FADE!
