from the songs album H2o
Music: hall
Lyrics: hall/oates/s. allen
You strike a low blow
You fight a dirty fight
Right to the heart you're putting me away
Time was movin' slow
But i was in control
There were so many things i should've said
But couldn't think of one word
(delayed reaction) oh yeah
At first i was ashamed
Then i was inflamed
I wanted to hurt you
Say that (delayed reaction) oh no
At first i was alright
And then i had to fight
I wanted to hurt you
I wanted to hurt you so
It was a backlash
No i couldn't let it pass
I was so mad i couldn't keep it down
I made it real tough
Ooh i had to blow you off
I couldn't stand it having you around
I couldn't stand the sound, no
(delayed reaction) oh yeah
At first i was ashamed
And then i was inflamed
I wanted to hurt you
Say that (delayed reaction) oh no
At first i was alright
And then i had to fight with you
I wanted to hurt you
I wanted to hurt you so
But if the rage is right
Then you better be wrong
'cause if i force a fight well then i'm twice a fool
Ooh, i could've listened more
Was that what you were waiting for?
I can't imagine why
I can't imagine why
I can't imagine why you'd wanna let it go
I didn't wanna blow but
(delayed reaction) oh yeah
At first i was ashamed
And then i was inflamed
I wanted to hurt you
Say that delayed reaction oh no
At first i was alright
And then i had to fight with you
I wanted to hurt you so
(delayed reaction) oh yeah
Ooh i had to fight, fight, fight you
(delayed reaction oh no)
Just had to let the love blow to fight a dirty fight
9delayed reaction oh yeah)
What good is saying i lost my head i didn't mean it girl
(delayed reaction) oh no
Ooh baby, ooh baby
I can't imagine why you want to let it go
(delayed reaction)
Ooh, yeah the boys are fine and i'm twice the fool
(delayed reaction) oh no
I can't imagine why, i can't imagine why
