(Chorus:)
All her words come back to me
All her words come back to me
Everywhere I go, every face I see
All her words come back to me

Give myself to masquerade
Waste my days in slow parade
Of every place where she might be
'n all her words come back to me
Even on my knees, I beg and plead
Swear that you're the only one whose
got what I need
Tear my hair 'til I make it bleed
All her words come back to me

(Chorus Repeats)

Now I know the worst ain't over yet
I played those cards, I lost that bet
Bad luck always seems to follow me in threes
All her words come back to me

"If you leave this time,
you can never come back.
You can slam my door,
you can dress in black.
You can ring my bell,
'til it's cold in hell.
But there ain't no water
left in that well -- uh uh"
Give myself to masquerade
Waste my days in slow parade
Of every place where she might be
'n all her words come back to me

(Chorus Repeats)
