Elvis Costello – The Sweetest Punch Lyrics  Share

From Elvis Costello's album: Painted From Memory

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
[ The Sweetest Punch lyrics from

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
