"Poison Love" lyrics

"Poison Love"
(originally by Bill Monroe)

For your poison love has stained the life
But in my heart and soul dear
And I know my life will never be the same
While my pleadings has all been in vain
For you and you alone dear
And you know that you are guilty of this shame

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 life
Blood in my heart and soul dear
And I know our love was never meant to be

All your poison love has stained the life
But in my heart and soul dear
And I know my life will never be the same
While my pleadings has all been in vain
For you and you alone dear
And you know that you are guilty of this shame

But still my heart cries out for you
And you alone my darling
And fate never ever let you go
But my pleadings has all been in vain
For you and you alone dear
And my better judgement tells me to say "No"

For your poison love has stained the life
But in my heart and soul dear
And I know my life will never be the same
While my pleadings has all been in vain
For you and you alone dear
And you know that you are guilty of this shame
