The poison 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 poison rose
On a Valentine card
That I take straight to the heart that you call my junkyard
But if all I can do is save pieces of you
The piece of your mind, the piece of your heart
Didn't tear me apart like the poison rose I received from you
I don't know how we came to grow into this very sad affair
Every time we do the decent thing, somebody spikes a drink
And a single becomes a pair
A poison 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
Threw away your alibis
And all your worn out clothes
Threw myself upon the floor but I couldn't throw away
This poison rose
This poison rose
This poison 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 poison rose
On a Valentine card
That I take straight to the heart that you call my junkyard
But if all I can do is save pieces of you
The piece of your mind, the piece of your heart
Didn't tear me apart like the poison rose I received from you
I don't know how we came to grow into this very sad affair
Every time we do the decent thing, somebody spikes a drink
And a single becomes a pair
A poison 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
Threw away your alibis
And all your worn out clothes
Threw myself upon the floor but I couldn't throw away
This poison rose
This poison rose
This poison rose
