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

Poisoned Rose
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 do
Is 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
Every time 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
