A lover spurned
|
A lesson learned
|
On love you've got
|
Your fingers burnt
|
|
Shed bitter tears
|
Now love has turned
|
The sweet revenge
|
Of a lover spurned
|
|
A passing phase
|
A week of love
|
But all at once
|
You had enough
|
|
It pales so soon
|
Waned with the moon
|
No deep concern
|
For a lover spurned
|
|
She'll destroy you with her little games
|
See you swallow all the blame
|
Make you pay in many ways
|
For the pleasure of watching you squirm
|
|
She'll tell her friends to treat you rough
|
That you just weren't good enough
|
Make the going really tough
|
For the pleasure of watching you burn in hell
|
|
And every day
|
More guilt to pay
|
A lesson learned
|
From a lover spurned
|
|
It was all so cosy for you
|
You had a wife, two children
|
And a beautiful house
|
And me, well you wanted me
|
When it suited your needs
|
And now, now I have nothing
|
Just a handful of faded photographs
|
Nothing but a cold empty heart
|
But I'm not easily forgotten
|
I'll appear when you least expect
|
To make you pay
|
You asked for it that way
|
|
She'll come to get you with a knife
|
Write poison letters to your wife
|
Totally destroy your life
|
For the pleasure of watching you squirm
|
|
She'll make a fool of you at work
|
Drag your name through the dirt
|
Make sure that it really hurts
|
For the pleasure of watching you burn in hell
|
|
A lover spurned
|
A lesson learned
|
On love you've got
|
Your fingers burnt
|
|
Shed bitter tears
|
Now love has turned
|
The sweet revenge
|
Of a lover spurned
|
|
The sweet revenge
|
Of a lover spurned
|
