Poison Lovers

[Verse 1] I was almost out of here I nearly left this time I saw you in my rearview mirror And I pulled up on a dime But nothing ventured, nothing lost You can't say we didn't try That is, unless you weigh the cost Of every tear we cried [Chorus] But why do we do this to each other? I guess we were always poison lovers [Verse 2] If you could look me in the eye And tell me what you see Maybe you can tell me why I let you torture me I know that your lips are soft When they sing the sweetest songs But I've been listening long enough My heart has turned to stone [Chorus] Why do we do this to each other? I guess we were always poison lovers [Verse 3] Another time, another place Another when to blame I'll cover every track and trace I'll find you just the same And even if we made our peace And went our separate ways You'd go west and I'd go east And we'd meet here in this place [Chorus] Why do we do this to each other? I guess we were always poison lovers Why do we do this to each other? I guess we were always poison lovers
