Poisonous Tongues Lyrics

[Hansen, K.R. Hagen, Thorsen, Nordhus. Lyrics: Thorsen]

Dive into my arms now that all is forgotten
and walk with me hand in hand towards the end
No reason to attempt once you've been kissed
by poisonous tongues
I watch my hope
as it hangs pale from an old fragile rope

Dive into my arms now that all is forgotten
and walk with me hand in hand towards the end

[Chorus:]
Present fear is consequence
Smothered in my common sense
Will let our history be past
So we can sin together

Dive into my arms now that all is forgotten
and walk with me hand in hand

I'll leave it all behind
and descend into your arms

Despite my promise
Despite what I already said
I'll leave it all behind
and I'll fall into your arms

If you could only open up my eyes
and wipe them clean from all this malice
I could have bought some time to lace my damnation

[Chorus]
