Elvis Costello With Burt Bacharach - The Sweetest Punch 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 gla** 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 gla** 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
