Poison Feat Aaliyah Lyrics | The Weeknd

Oh, can I explain myself to you?
Questions been lurking through my mind
Is it the lover for the time?
I've given my heart, my joy, my soul to you

If it is real, I sure can't see
Gotta start lookin' out for me
And in my, my heart won't take no more
I know you say that I don't care

Sometimes my way of life ain't fair
I feel it's sad for me, you take the chance
So you are givin' me no choice
I think I must exercise my voice and say

This feeling, there's no drug that can compare
You're so cold, I can't see your breath, I swear
And they told me not to fall in love
Wondering where it all went wrong
You were my poison all along

Late at night I lay awake in tears and pain (tears and pain)
Askin' my heart for: What went wrong? (hey)
Askin' myself: What's goin' on?
Oh, come on, we seem to see things eye to eye (eye to eye)

Somehow I didn't feel the danger (hey)
And now I'm sleeping with a stranger
To see all these years, we flushed them down the drain (down the drain)
Was that a love we can't promise?

Now it's too late for both of us
No regrets for what we lost and what we shared
Maybe tomorrow we'll love again
But until then we'll stay as friends, oh, one day

This feeling, there's no drug that can compare
You're so cold, I can't see your breath, I swear
They told me not to fall in love
Wondering where it all went wrong
You were my poison all along

Yeah
Poison all long, ooh-yeah
Oh-oh-ooh
Babygirl, poison all along
