The poisoned rose | |
That you gave to me | |
It left me half alive | |
And half in ecstasy | |
But if half of your love | |
Is all I can win | |
Give me just a fraction | |
But no more medicine | |
The poisoned rose | |
On a valentine card | |
That you take straight to the heart | |
That you call my junkyard | |
But if all | |
I can doIs save pieces of you | |
The piece of your mind | |
The piece of your heart | |
Didn't tear me apart | |
Like the poisoned rose | |
I received from you | |
I don't know | |
How we came to grow | |
Into this very sad affair | |
Everytime we do the decent thing | |
Somebody spikes the drink | |
And a single becomes a pair | |
The poisoned rose | |
That you wear at your best | |
That I keep pressed between the white sheets | |
Where you lie half undressed | |
I threw away my shirt and shoes | |
You looked and | |
I dived in | |
It's just you and me now' | |
Cause I threw away the gin | |
I threw away your alibis | |
And all your worn out clothes | |
I threw myself upon the floor | |
But I couldn't throw away | |
This poisoned rose, this poisoned rose | |
This poisoned rose |
