Poison Angel lyrics

I know that you know

that I've seen your face before.

A bad dream, so mean,

rockin' me down like a slot machine.

So many years, I don't know when.

My dear, how have you been?

The way you looked the night we met

gets me hot breathin', ooh, cold sweat.

You were so shy

and I was so high

that I don't remember the rest.

But the one thing that I'll never forget:

You're a poison angel

tryin' to take my wings away.

Poison angel,

get down on your knees and pray.

I still remember what you said,

the part about me droppin' dead.

You sent a letter, I read it twice,

I found out you weren't so nice.

But there you were, looking so cool

to this country boy in the New York groove.

So you left me in the drink,

laughing while you watched me sink.

You were so shy

and I was so high

that I don't remember the rest.

But the one thing that I'll never forget:

You're a poison angel

tryin' to take my wings away.

Poison angel,

get down on your knees and pray.  

Yeah, you were some fun,

but you never looked at the damage done.

Poison angel

tryin' to take my wings away.

Poison angel,

get down on your knees and pray.    

(Poison angel)
