Letra de Poisoned Rose
The poisoned rose That you gave to me It left me half alive, and Half in ecstasyBut if just half your love Is all I can win Give me just a fraction And no more medicineThe poisoned rose On a Valentine's card That you take straight to the heart, that You call my junkyardBut if all I can do Is save pieces of you Piece of your mind A piece of your heartDidn't tear me apart Like the poisoned rose That I received from youNow I don't know How we came to grow Into this very sad affair Every time we try to do the decent thing Somebody spikes the drinks And a single becomes a pairThe poisoned rose 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 darlin And you know why 'Cause I threw away the gin I talk to the garbage man And took away your alibi All your worn-out clothes I even threw myself down on the ground but I couldn't bring myself To throw away The rose The poisoned rose The poisoned rose
