When I first met you I was hooked right away
I knew that I was gonna be the one to make all your dreams come true, I thought when there was me and you we'd be the best together forever but
I didn't see it in the beginning, but later on I found that there was pure poison ivy in your icy stare, poison ivy in your smile, in everything you did.
I tried my best to avoid the rest, but in the end
I lost my sense of everything and fell into your poison ivy.
Everything I did was in your best interest, and not my own.
Everything was for you and only you.
Darling, I didn't wanna say goodbye, cuz I thought that you're poison ivy
would just go away on it's own. I was so wrong to think like that, and now I'm under the thumb of your poisonous venom.
I didn't see it in the beginning, but later on I found that
there was pure poison ivy in your icy stare, poison ivy in your smile,
in everything you did. I tried my best to avoid the rest, but in the end
I lost my sense of everything and fell into your poison ivy.
I thought I was so strong until you came along, and my world spun around.
Soon I found that I was following you and everything I did was chosen by you in my head. After awhile I found myself tangled in a love web spun by you, and your poison ivy. I knew I wasn't gonna get anywhere until I cut you out of my life, which I knew would strike me like a knife.
I didn't see it in the beginning, but later on I found that
there was pure poison ivy in your icy stare, poison ivy in your smile,
in everything you did. I tried my best to avoid the rest, but in the end I lost my sense of everything and fell into your poison ivy.
I tried to put my thoughts of you aside, but when I did that, the more I cried. I tried to move ahead, but my heart bled, and I came running back to you instead. I know I can’t go anywhere without wishing you were there, and I felt another page in my life story begin to tear. It’s unfair, but I don’t really care.
I didn't see it in the beginning, but later on I found that
there was pure poison ivy in your icy stare, poison ivy in your smile,
in everything you did. I tried my best to avoid the rest, but in the end I lost my sense of everything and fell into your poison ivy.
It’s not my fault babe, I didn’t know you’d hurt me like you chose to do,
And so I had no choice but to let you go. Don’t come crying back to me and saying that you changed cuz I know better than that. I know that it’s just a trap that you set so I’d fall back into your poison ivy, and wish we’d try again. I didn’t know it then, but I know now that you’re love was just a lie, and that you’re plan was to tie you’re poison ivy ‘round my wrists, and feet. So I was confined to your wicked poison ivy.
I didn't see it in the beginning, but later on I found that
there was pure poison ivy in your icy stare, poison ivy in your smile,
in everything you did. I tried my best to avoid the rest, but in the end I lost my sense of everything and fell into your poison ivy.
Listen to me when I say you and me aren’t free, we weren’t meant to be.
I let you go before, and I let you go again, but this time I’m not gonna come back. You lost me, and it’s your own fault. I tried forever to make it work, I did my part, but you didn’t do yours. You never did your part.
So it resulted in a broken heart for me. You didn’t care, you didn’t try.
So I was living a lie.
I didn't see it in the beginning, but later on I found that
there was pure poison ivy in your icy stare, poison ivy in your smile,
in everything you did. I tried my best to avoid the rest, but in the end I lost my sense of everything and fell into your poison ivy.
How could you be so cold? You never did anything that you were told.
I thought I’d be happier on my own, and I am, but now and then I still miss you. Cuz If I never see you again I know I’ll always miss you. Our relationship wasn’t gonna work, even though I thought it could, but I was wrong, I was so wrong. It took me to long to end it. I should’ve known it from the beginning, I wasn’t gonna be winning, not this time.
(Chorus last time)
I didn't see it in the beginning, but later on I found that
there was pure poison ivy in your icy stare, poison ivy in your smile,
in everything you did. I tried my best to avoid the rest, but in the end I lost my sense of everything and fell into your poison ivy.
(Spoken)
I was so wrong loving you, and I should’ve known.
