Poison Apples Hallelujah Lyrics by Joan Osborne

Poison Apples Hallelujah Lyrics

    Written by Joan Osborne, Rob Hyman, & Rick Chertoff

    Your memory comes back to me
    to stangle me with its sweet taste
    See God would never be so cruel
    to make me live without your face
    Now that I have made you crawl
    It does you good to see me fall
    Like poison apples from the tree
    as heavy as a honey bee

    (chorus)
    Hallelujah
    I gave you away so easily
    It makes me wonder why

    Moving through you every night
    The lovely girls in dressed tight
    The angels dancing on a pin
    The people we are downing in
    Like a needle going in
    Into the shining city skin
    Oh I recall the moment when you ruined me for other men

    (chorus)
    Hallelujah
    I gave you away so easily
    It makes me wonder why
    (repeat)

    If I die before you do
    believe me I'll be haunting you
    I'll come upon you while you sleep
    to drown you in a kiss
    So deep
