Bittersweet Road — When Love Stays But The Path Changes

Bittersweet Road is a soulful R&B journal entry about real love, quiet growth, and learning to bless somebody without holding them hostage. It’s nostalgic, tender, and rooted in grace — that space where love don’t die, it just takes a different route.

ABOUT THE SOUND

This track blends Soul, R&B, Gospel undertones, spoken-word storytelling, and honest vulnerability. For fans of Daniel Caesar, Snoh Aalegra, Lucky Daye, and Christian R&B storytellers.

Same hearts Different roads Same prayers Different loads No enemies Just outgrown clothes

If you ever loved somebody for real and y’all just grew in different directions, this one for you.

Lyrics

Mmm ohhh my honeybunch my sugarplum We used to talk every day every night Yeah yeah yeah yeah

We used to talk every day every night Same jokes same dreams same prayer before the light Now I scroll past your name dont know what to say Aint no beef aint no anger life just got in the way Youre my honeybunch sugarplum pumpy umpy umpkin Youre my sweetie pie my morning sun my lullaby Every little thing you do feels like a melody come true You light my sky oh baby thats why Aint nobody wrong aint nobody right We just grew in different directions overnight Same love same truth Just different views

I thank heaven for this feeling deep inside Youre the song that keeps my soul alive We aint broken we aint cold We just aint meant to walk the same road We just aint meant to walk the same road Same faith same truth Different seasons different moves

Youre my cuppycake my gumdrop dream My snoogums boogums my everything The apple of my eye my joy my peace my light And Ill love you till the stars lose their shine We got the same hearts but different roads Same prayers but we carry different loads I still wish you peace wherever you go We aint enemies we just outgrew the same old clothes

I see you happy and I smile for real Cause love aint selfish love wants you healed We tried to hold on longer than we should Stayed outta habit not cause it felt good When Im low you lift me high Youre my truth when I cant find why Every heartbeat hums your name Every laugh we share feels the same Youre the calm inside my storm Youre the reason my hearts warm Sometimes growth dont come with goodbye tears Sometimes its silence space and unanswered years

Ohhh if I could rewind I wouldnt change a thing Every laugh every tear taught me somethin Yeah baby when I sing your name Its like honey dripping through my veins You were a chapter not the whole book And I thank God for every page we took Youre more than cute words and candy rain Youre the poem I cant explain No regrets no shame Just gratitude in His name

Ohhh I love to sing sweet songs to you Every note I sing is true Youre my forever lullaby And Ill keep loving you through every sky We got the same hearts but different ways Same memories just in different frames Ill always love you that wont fade Sometimes God moves people not the love you made

Youre my cuppycake my gumdrop dream My snoogums boogums my everything Youre the apple of my eye my joy my peace my light Youre my morning noon and

Youre my honeybunch sugarplum pumpy umpy umpkin Youre my sweetie pie my morning sun my lullaby Every little thing you do feels like a melody come true You light my sky oh baby thats why

I thank heaven for this feeling deep inside Youre the song that keeps my soul alive We aint broken we aint cold We just aint meant to walk the same road
