Back With A Vengeance

Back with a vengeance;
Back to break your heart again.
Back with a vengeance,
Back to break your heart.

It's just a trick of the light.
It's just a little illusion.
Take a measure of spite,
Add a little confusion.

Looking back;
Looking back, darling, I can see your point of view.
Looking back;
Looking back, darling, see your memory cutting in on you.

Back with a vengeance;
Back to break your heart again.
Back with a vengeance,
Back to break your heart.

Now the secret you're keeping
Is so well understood.
Feel your past come creeping.
You know you'd change it if you could.

Looking back;
Looking back, darling, I can see your point of view.
Looking back;
Looking back, darling, feel your memory crowding in on you.

Back with a vengeance;
Back to break your heart again.
Back with a vengeance,
Back to break your heart.

When it hits the fan,
All the alibis wear thin.
When your fur starts flying,
Ah that's when the fun begins.

Looking back;
Looking back, darling, I can see your point of view.
Looking back;
Looking back, darling, see your memory come screaming through.

Back with a vengeance;
Back to break your heart again.
Back with a vengeance;
Back to break your heart.

Back with a vengeance;
Back to break your heart again.
I'm back with a vengeance,
Back to break your heart.
