And we'd meet here in this place
Why do we do this to each other
If you could look me in the eye
I'll cover every track and trace
I know that your lips are soft
Another time, another place
I guess we were always poison lovers
My heart has turned to stone
And went our separate ways
But I've been listenin' long enough
And tell me what you see
Why do we do this to each other
That is unless you weigh the cost
I'll find you just the same
You'd go west and I'd go east
Another wind to blame
Why do we do this to each other
But nothin' ventured, nothin' lost
You can't say we didn't try
Yes we were always poison lovers
I saw you in my rear view mirror
And they sing the sweetest songs
Yes we were always poison lovers
But why do we do this to each other
And I pulled up on a dime
And even if we made our peace
Of every tear we cried
Maybe you can tell me why
I let you torture me
