Marc Almond – A Lover Spurned
On love you’ve got your fingers burnt
Shed bitter tears, now love has turned
The sweet revenge of a lover spurned
But all at once you had enough
It pales so soon, waned with the moon
No deep concern for a lover spurned
See you swallow all the blame
Make you pay in many ways
For the pleasure of watching you squirm
That you just weren’t good enough
Make the going really tough
For the pleasure of watching you burn in hell
A lesson learned from a lover spurned
You had a wife, two children
And a beautiful house
And me, well you wanted me
And now, now I have nothing
Just a handful of faded photographs
Nothing but a cold empty heart
I’ll appear when you least expect
To make you pay
You asked for it that way
Write poison letters to your wife
Totally destroy your life
For the pleasure of watching you squirm
Drag your name through the dirt
Make sure that it really hurts
For the pleasure of watching you burn in hell
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
