A Rush of Blood to the Head
You said I'm gonna buy this place
And burn it down
I'm gonna put it six feet underground
You said I'm gonna buy this place
And watch it fall
Stand here beside me, baby
In the crumbling walls
Oh, I'm gonna buy this place
And start a fire
Stand here until I fill
All your heart's desires
Because I'm gonna buy this place
And see it burn
And do back the things it did to you
In return
You said I'm gonna buy a gun
And start a war
If you can tell me something
Worth fighting for
Oh, and I'm gonna buy this place
Is what I said
Blame it upon
A rush of blood to the head
Honey, all the movements
You're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I've made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you mean to go on
Start as you mean to go on
Said I'm gonna buy this place
And see it go
Stand here beside me, baby
Watch the orange glow
Some'll laugh and
Some just sit and cry
You just sit down there
And you wonder why
So I'm gonna buy a gun
And start a war
If you can tell me something
Worth fighting for
And I'm gonna buy this place
Is what I said
Blame it upon
A rush of blood to the head
Oh, to the head
Honey, all the movements
You're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
And I know the mistakes that I've made
See it all disappear without a trace
And they call as they beckon you on
They say start as you need to go on
As you mean to go on
As you mean to go on
So meet me by the bridge
Meet me by the lane
When am I gonna see
That pretty face again?
Oh, meet me on the road
Meet me where I said
Blame it all upon
A rush of blood to the head
