A Little Drop of Poison
I saw it on the news yesterday
A story 'bout a girl who lost her way
Never thought to come in from the rain
As time forgotten memories live on
Took me for the fool I've become
Still you know I miss the songs she sung
I saw her in a dream late last night
Singing Back to Black without a mic
Only to be lovers in my mind
One shot, a little drop of poison (a little drop of poison)
A short stop on the long way homeward
One day they'll find you in the morning
With eyes opened wide
One shot, a little drop of poison (a little drop of poison)
The sheer ease of self-destruction
One day, lost but not forgotten
We'll see you by and by
I saw it on the news yesterday
Saw them lining up to see your face
All I thought to do was turn away
So sing it for the reputations lost
Ask it, for the question lingers on
Who's that at the door when God is gone?
One shot, a little drop of poison (a little drop of poison)
A short stop on the long way homeward
One day they'll find you in the morning
With eyes opened wide
One shot, a little drop of poison (a little drop of poison)
The sheer ease of self-destruction
One day, lost but not forgotten
We'll see you by and by
I saw it on the news yesterday
A story 'bout a girl who lost her way
Never thought to come in from the rain
A story 'bout a girl who lost her way
Never thought to come in from the rain
As time forgotten memories live on
Took me for the fool I've become
Still you know I miss the songs she sung
I saw her in a dream late last night
Singing Back to Black without a mic
Only to be lovers in my mind
One shot, a little drop of poison (a little drop of poison)
A short stop on the long way homeward
One day they'll find you in the morning
With eyes opened wide
One shot, a little drop of poison (a little drop of poison)
The sheer ease of self-destruction
One day, lost but not forgotten
We'll see you by and by
I saw it on the news yesterday
Saw them lining up to see your face
All I thought to do was turn away
So sing it for the reputations lost
Ask it, for the question lingers on
Who's that at the door when God is gone?
One shot, a little drop of poison (a little drop of poison)
A short stop on the long way homeward
One day they'll find you in the morning
With eyes opened wide
One shot, a little drop of poison (a little drop of poison)
The sheer ease of self-destruction
One day, lost but not forgotten
We'll see you by and by
I saw it on the news yesterday
A story 'bout a girl who lost her way
Never thought to come in from the rain
