A lovers spurned (live) Lyrics by Marc Almond

12 Years of tears (2022 edition)

1993

Thank you very much
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 paled 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
(Yeah)
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
The sweet revenge of a lover spurned
If you dare to leave me now
There’ll be no escape
It will have to be that way
If you hear the phone ring, it’ll be me
If there’s nothing at all
I’ll be there
I’ll be over your shoulder
I’ll be everywhere
If you wanna pay, he’ll have to stay
It will have to be that way
It has to be that way
Oh, I’ll make him pay
Oh, I’ll make him pay
With blood
