You Beat Me To The Punch Lyrics


That day, I first saw you passing by
I wanted to know your name but I was much too shyBut I was looking at you so hard
Until you must have had a hunch
So you came up to me and asked me my nameYou beat me to the punch that time
You beat me to the punch, ohh ohh
You beat me to the punchAfter I hadn't known you for it seems like a long, long time
I wanted, wanted to ask you, would you please, please be mineWhenever you came around, my heart would pound
So you must have had a hunch
So you came up to me and asked me to be yoursYou beat me to the punch one more time
You beat me to the punch
You beat me to the punch, yeahSince I love you, I thought you would be true
And love me tender
So I let my heart surrender
To you, yes, I didBut I found out beyond a doubt one day, boy, you were a playboy
Who would go away and leave me blueSo I ain't gonna wait around for you to put me down
This time I'm gonna play my hunch
And walk away this very dayAnd beat you to the punch this time
And beat you to the punch this time

I'll beat you to the punch, yes, I will
And let you know, know, how it feels

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
