And Then You Kissed Me - Lyrics by Cardigans, The


Lyrics

Men I've had a few,
But they wouldn't quite blow me like you...
You gave me your name and signed
With a halo around my eye...

And it hits me like never before,
That love is a powerful force
Yes it struck me that love is a sport
So I pushed you a little bit more

Love, you're newest to me,
You're a little bit more that I thought you'd be,
A mole in my well-fed lawn
You're a nightmare beating the dawn

And it hits me like never before,
That love is a powerful force
Yes it struck me that love is a sport
So I pushed you a little bit more

Blue, blue, black and blue,
Red blood sticks like glue,
True love is cruel love,
Red blood say power fuel
Sweet love, tasty blood,
My heart overfloods

Oh, you hit me...
Yeah, you hit me really hard.
Man you hit me,
Yeah, you hit me right in the heart...

Lord I've had my deal,
But I never quite knew how it feels,
When love makes you wake up sore,
With fists that are ready for more.

And it hits me that love is a game
Like in war, no one can be blamed,
Yes it struck me that love is a sport
So I pushed you a little bit more

Oh, blue, blue, black and blue,
Red blood sticks like glue,
True love is cruel love,
Red blood says power fuel.
Sweet love, tasty blood,
My heart overfloods,
Man, you hit me...
Yeah, you hit me really hard.
Baby, you hit me,
Yeah, you punched me right in the heart...

...and then you kissed me...
...and then you hit me...
...and then you kissed me...
...and then you hit me...

Oh you haunt me with your violent heartbeat at night
Oh you strike me with your silence baby tonight
Oh you haunt me with your violence baby forgive me
you haunt me with your violent heartbeat
