Elvis Costello Sweetest Punch (songs Of Costello) The Sweetest Punch



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
