Lyrics

You beat me to the punch
Writers william "smokey" robinson, ronald white

That day, I first saw you passing by
I wanted, to ask your name but i...was much too shy
But I was looking at you so hard
That you must have had a hunch
So you came up to me and asked me my name
You beat me to the punch
That time
You beat me to the punch
Yes you did
After, I had known you for what seems like a long, long time
I wanted, wanted to ask you would you please, please be mine
Whenever you came around, my heart would pound
So you must have had a hunch
So you came up to me and asked me to be yours
You beat me to the punch
One more time
You beat me to the punch
Yes you did
Since I loved you
I thought you would be true
And love me tender
So I let my heart surrender
To you, yes I did
But I found out
Beyond a doubt
One day, boy
You were a playboy
Who would go away and leave me
Blue
So I ain't gonna wait around for you to put me down
This time I'm gonna play my hunch
And walk away this very day
And beat you to the punch
Yes I will
I'll beat you to the punch
This time
