The Scorpion and The Frog

Come now darling dry those eyes

Believe my words, you'll be all right

You can slip this noose

You can cut yourself loose

I would carry you on my back

Through troubled water I promise that

On the shore your smile arrived

You left me in broken pieces behind

You needed me but I wanted you

The two are as different as red and blue

High on the poison spoke from your lips

My heart was a flutter my soul was adrift

By the time you hit my veins, I was gone

Lost on the shore as you carried on

It was only your nature.
