T Bone Burnett - Poison Love lyrics

For your poison love has stained the life blood in my heart and soul, dear And I know my life will never be the same For my pleadings have all been in vain for you and you alone, dear And you know that you are guilty of the shame Into each life a love is born for one and one alone, dear The love I chose was surely not for me For your poison love has stained the life blood in my heart and soul, dear And I know our love was never meant to be For your poison love has stained the life blood in my heart and soul, dear And I know my life will never be the same For my pleadings have all been in vain for you and you alone, dear And you know that you are guilty of the shame But still my heart cries out for you and you alone my darling And begs me never ever let you go But my pleadings have all been in vain for your and you alone, dear And my better judgment tells me to say no For your poison love has stained the life blood in my heart and soul, dear And I know my life will never be the same For my pleadings have all been in vain for you and you alone, dear And you know that you are guilty of the shame
