Poison Love

[Chorus: Both]
For your poison love has stained the lifeblood 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

[Verse 1: Johnnie Wright]
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 lifeblood in my heart and soul, dear
And I know our love was never meant to be

[Chorus: Both]
For your poison love has stained the lifeblood 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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2: Johnnie Wright]
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 you and you alone, dear And my better judgment tells me to say no

[Chorus: Both]
For your poison love has stained the lifeblood 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
