lirik lagu poisoned rose – elvis costello
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
everytime 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
