Poison & Wine written by John Paul White, Joy Williams & Chris Lindsey

You only know what i want I you to
I know everything you don't want me to
your mouth is poison your mouth is wine
you think your dreams are the same as mine

I don't love you but I always will
I don't love you but I always will
I don't love you but I always will
I always will

I wish you'd hold me when I turn my back
well the less I give the more I get back
your hands can heal, your hands can bruise
I don't have a choice, but I'd still choose you

I don't love you but I always will
I don't love you but I always will
I don't love you but I always will
I don't love you but I always will

I don't love you but I always will
I don't love you but I always will
I don't love you but I always will

I always will
I always will
I always will
I always will

Poison & Wine is a musical snapshot about the dichotomy of love - that while it can be the thing that destroys you, it can also be the very same thing that beckons and builds you. JP and I are both married have been for several years now - and we got to talking one day about what a tug and pull our individual relationships can be. The longer you know someone - and the longer you allow someone to know you - the more the light and shadows inside each person become more vivid. This song was our attempt at being as brutally honest about the dangerous and beautiful process of knowing and being known. (-Joy Williams, The Civil Wars)

As a 19 year old dude, I can honestly say I felt like a teenage girl watching the end of this video. KISS HER GEEZUS

[cskallerup]

I truly think you can only understand this song if you are married.

[thehungergamesfan19]

perfect for the hunger games <3

[SynneBaartvedt]

Haha at the beginning I thought the man was Johnny Depp! He sure did look like him, right?

[Fiwen1988]

See the red stripe? Me neither :-)

[junent86]

gosh she is so freaking pretty

[desaturainbow]

The Hunger Games brought me here.

[xiaweikelvin]

paper aeroplanes brought me here.

@purtelljp I'm not trolling or ignorant. I'm just pointing out that acting as a couple is one thing, but when they are both married to other people it is entirely unnecessary for them to kiss. The story is clear enough without two married people locking lips. This is just me expressing my opinion about how I am satisfied with the way they ended the video.

[purtelljp]

@waterbendergareth and he's married, but not to that girl. they're actors playing a couple in a scene that is beautiful, and it makes a wonderful story. don't know if you're trolling or ignorant, but I forgive you either way.

[waterbendergareth]

@purtelljp That'd have been weird if they kissed. She's married, and not to that guy.

[princcessXmariyah]

He looks like the love child of Chad Michael Murray and Johnny Depp!!
