John Parr - Revenge Lyrics

Did you say it for effect, or was it true, don't tell me, I can guess
I've sailed your seas of lies, but floundered on the rocks, I'm drowning

I was walking on the wire, one look at you and it could light my fire
Burning up in your desire, there's just one thing pulling me through

[Chorus]
Revenge, I thought you'd be here forever, sharing a future that's gone
I know it's over, but still the fight goes on
Revenge, one for the lost and the lonely, ending each day with if only
You left me cold, I'm the victim now you've gone

Revenge, I need revenge

Did you see the way she looked, the way she smiled, I've seen it all before
I could write a book, I'd like to kiss and tell, or shout it

I was walking on the wire, one look at you and it could light my fire
Burning up in your desire, there's just one thing pulling me through

[Chorus]

Revenge, I need revenge, I'm taking revenge, I need revenge

I've got to find a new direction, I'm searching for the right connection
You're clawing me back, but I'm working on a new attack

[Chorus]

Revenge, I thought you'd never deceive me, you and you fooled all along
I just want more than the victory that you've won
Revenge, one for the lost and the lonely
