All that poison love has shamed The life blood in my heart and soul dear And I know my life will never be the same All my pleadings has all been in vain For you and you alone dear And I know that you are guilty of the shame Into each life some rain must fall For one and one alone dear And the love I chose was not for me Cause your love has just now let me down And left my heart a cryin' But I know that you are guilty of the shame All that poison love has shamed... [ piano - guitar ] Into each life some rain must fall For one and one alone dear And I know the love I chose was not for me But your love has always put me down And now I feel outside dear And I know that you are guilty of the shame All that poison love has shamed... [ accordion - mandolin ] My heart cries out for you each night Alone when each days closing And I know this love is surely not for me But my poison love I've got to live within my heart and soul, dear And I know that you are guilty of the shame All that poison love has shamed...
