Back with a Vengeance - John Martyn

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
