The Sweetest Punch lyrics
Song information
Artist: Elvis Costello Album: Painted From Memory
Lyrics
You only saw red After I said, "how can we continue?" Hidden from your view In the blue corner that I painted myself into Then we started to fight And it changed everything Here's the ring
You dropped the band, I can't understand it Not after all we've been through Words start to fly, my glass jaw and i Will find one to walk right into
You knocked me out It was the sweetest punch The bell goes..
I can hear it ringing, but I didn't see it coming We all say things we don't mean You can't take it back
Now the room is spinning, but was I the last to notice? I can see I'll never win So if you're going Then you better go to him Then you better go to him
I only saw stars I dropped my guard, and that's how it ended What was I to do In the blue corner where I seemed to hang suspended?
Then with seconds to go You delivered the blow Here I go
You dropped the band, I can't understand it Not after all we've been through Words start to fly, my glass jaw and i Will find one to walk right into
You knocked me out It was the sweetest punch The bell goes..
I can hear it ringing, but I didn't see it coming We all say things we don't mean You can't take it back
Now the room is spinning, but was I the last to notice? I can see I'll never win So if you're going Then you better go to him Then you better go to him
