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
