Burt Bacharach – 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 what 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 could hear it ringing but I didn’t see you coming

We all say things we don’t mean

You can’t take it back

Now the room is spinning but……???????????

I can see I’ll never win

So if you’re going, then you better go with 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 be suspended?

Then with seconds to go you delivered blow

Here I go
