Here's the devil in disguise
Hits me right between the eyes
Like a thief out of the night
Someone taught him how to fight

[Chorus]
Love can knock you over
Love can knock you over
Tongue-tied and crucified
Cross my heart and hope to die
But I'll get up again
And I'll fall down again
And I'll get fooled again

[Repeat chorus]

Beaten by the sucker punch
And I don't care about getting' up
You can count me out this time
And I won't mind
So used to useless metaphors
Lost the battle, won the war
Words to fight another day
Pass away

[Repeat chorus]
