A Rush of Blood to the Head lyrics

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
