Conquest Lyrics

[00:10.08] Conquest
[00:16.42] He was out to make a conquest
[00:20.04] Didn't care what harm was done
[00:22.33] Just as long as he won the prize
[00:27.32] Conquest
[00:30.26] She was just another conquest
[00:34.06] Didn't care whose heart was broke
[00:36.55] Love to him was a joke
[00:38.41] 'Til he looked into her eyes
[00:43.07] And then in the strange way things happen
[00:46.12] Their roles were reversed from that day
[00:49.60] The hunted became the huntress
[00:53.44] The hunter became the prey
[00:58.92] Conquest
[01:03.38] Now you know who made the conquest
[01:06.89] She with all her female guile
[01:09.30] Led him helpless down the aisle
[01:11.21] She had finally made a conquest
[01:15.10]
[01:56.32] And then in the strange way things happen
[02:00.52] Their roles were reversed from that day
[02:04.10] The hunted became the huntress
[02:07.69] The hunter became the prey
[02:12.66] Conquest
[02:18.76] Now you know who made the conquest
[02:22.04] She with all her female guile
[02:24.12] Led him helpless down the aisle
[02:26.08] She had finally made a conquest
[02:29.92]
[02:36.91] Conquest
[02:41.12]
