I met you by chance the other day 
Time hasn't been kind to your face 
Your beauty now gone, there never was grace  
Line's and shadows from long nights and short days 

I nearly walked by, sorry I didn't  
Run for my life, promised I wouldn't 
Try to be nice, maybe I shouln't  
Try to be nice, I know you couldn'd  

I met you by chance, years ago 
Down on my luck, as well you know 
I never thought it would get much worse 
But meetin' you I surely was cursed 

I must have been bad in lives gone by 
My karma bein' to suffer your lies  
Each and every day full of pain 
Payin' my karma tryin' to be sane 

This is Martha's song I hope at last you will hear 
It's my turn to talk after all those years 
Your lies and your cheating I never deserved 
But sorry is a word upon your lips I never heard 

I'll not meet you again here on this earth 
But you're still in my thoughts, domestic terrorist 
You household guerilla, bedroom traitor 
But you won the war, I only knew about later 

Still after all this time here's your first song 
Merciless warrior, child of the moon 
Every day I wish we never did meet 
On the road to treachery by the crossroads of deceit 

One day I'll meet you by chance over the Jordan 
On heaven's bright shore where we all come from 
God in his mercy will love you too 
I pray that in time I'll also forgive you 

In an empty house a battle you'd cause 
Our poor dear Lord his tranquility lose 
And I picture someone I know so well 
Bangin' on the door cryin' I wanna go to Hell 

This is Martha's song I hope at last you will hear 
It's my turn to talk after all those years 
Your lies and your cheating I never deserved 
But sorry is a word upon your lips I never heard
