How can I explain myself to you? Questions keep lurking through my mind Is it the lover for the time? I've given my heart, my joy, my soul to you If it is real, I sure can't see Gotta start looking out for me And in my, my heart won't take no more I know it seems that I don't care Sometimes my ways are less than fair I feel it's sad for me to take a stand See, you have given me no choice I feel I must exercise my voice and say This feeling, there's no drug that can compare You're so cold, I can't see your breath, I swear And they told me not to fall in love Wondering where it all went wrong You were my poison all along Late nights, I lay awake in tears and pain (tears and pain) Searching my heart for what went wrong (hey) Asking myself, "What's going on?" Why cannot we seem to see things eye to eye? (Eye to eye) Somehow I didn't feel the danger (hey) And now I'm sleeping with a stranger To see all these years, we flushed 'em down the drain (down the drain) Was that a love we can't promise? Now it's too late for both of us No regrets for what we've lost and what we've shared Maybe tomorrow we'll love again But until then we'll stay as friends, oh, one day This feeling, there's no drug that can compare You're so cold, I can't see your breath, I swear They told me not to fall in love Wondering where it all went wrong You were my poison all along Yeah Poison all long, oh-yeah Ooh-ooh-ooh Baby girl, poison all along
