Knockout Girl
from Falling Doves by The Intricate Melody
lyrics
I've been close to death,
Laying' off my head
and talking to myself
about a love we shared
Girl, forever I'll keep you close
I'll briefly hold you through my thoughts
I can picture you and me just evading time
Hurt me
I could do with
being brought to life
Love to me, a dagger.
While you boast that it's a high
Firstly I was thinking I might
Simplify, how you feel for me
So it's just as well I try
You're my knockout, Girl.
and I'll be your Knockout Guy
Just Don't Let Me Die- (let me die)
I'll remind you of broken promises
when I made the most, of
An early break...
On the brink for sure
Not so brief my pain
Hurt me, girl, you did
and I'd wished you'd stayed
Since I saw you then I
Had checked my head
I could not put up with
your crazy friends ...
Hurt me
I could do with
being brought to life
Love to me, a dagger.
While you boast that it's a high
Firstly I was thinking I might
Simplify, how you feel for me
So it's just as well I try
You're my knockout, Girl.
and I'll be your Knockout Guy
Just Don't Let Me Die- (let me die)
Counting down from ten
We're back on again
I'll be, on your case
like a modern trend
We can look at what,
You and I have found,
and just rest assured that
We're safe and sound
Hurt me
I could do with
being brought to life
Love to me, a dagger.
While you boast that it's a high
Firstly I was thinking I might
Simplify, how you feel for me
So it's just as well I try
You're my knockout, Girl.
and I'll be your Knockout Guy
Just Don't Let Me Die- (let me die)
Laying' off my head
and talking to myself
about a love we shared
Girl, forever I'll keep you close
I'll briefly hold you through my thoughts
I can picture you and me just evading time
Hurt me
I could do with
being brought to life
Love to me, a dagger.
While you boast that it's a high
Firstly I was thinking I might
Simplify, how you feel for me
So it's just as well I try
You're my knockout, Girl.
and I'll be your Knockout Guy
Just Don't Let Me Die- (let me die)
I'll remind you of broken promises
