Beat Me To The Punch

Just a second is all that it took
And it slipt off the hook right before my eyes
You beat me to the punch
Like a thief in the night

Should of put up a fight
But I thought time was on my side
You beat me to the punch
I was getting ahead of myself

Someone handin' the prize at the finish line
I thought I'd done enough
Oh tell me how could I lose
I was ready to move

But now I've got to press rewind
You beat me to the punch
I let it all go
I've only got myself to blame

Another day I might have known
When it was easy
To beat me, to beat me to the punch
Beat me to the punch, beat me
Beat me to the punch, beat me

Beat me, beat me
Just a second is all that it took
And it slipt off the hook right before my eyes
You beat me to the punch

Like a thief in the night
Should of put up a fight
But I thought time was on my side
You beat me to the punch

I was getting ahead of myself
Someone handin' the prize at the finish line
I thought I'd done enough
Tell me how could I lose

I was ready to move
But now I've got to press rewind
You beat me to the punch
I let it all go

I've only got myself to blame
Another day I might have known
When it was easy
To beat me, to beat me to the punch

Beat me to the punch, beat me
Beat me to the punch, beat me
Beat me to the punch, beat me
Beat me to the punch, beat me
Beat me to the punch, beat me
You beat me to the punch
