Lyrics
He walked out on his child and his wife
He ran away to start his new life
Don’t know what was worse her anger or hurt
But it filled up her heart ‘till she thought it would burst
She wanted Sweet Revenge
It was the only thing she could see
And her Sweet Revenge
Consumed all of her dreams
In her mind she imagined thousands of schemes
To punish the girl who had stolen her dreams
She’d lie in her bed and there she would pray
That somehow this pain would just go away
CHORUS
She finally let go and let someone in
Finally she trusted her feelings again
She opened her heart and that’s when she saw
That love is the sweetest revenge of all
FINAL CHORUS
And her Sweet Revenge
Wasn’t what she thought it would be
Love is Sweet Revenge
And finally she’s free
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh
