A Rush of Blood to the Head

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and burn it down I'm gonna put it six feet underground" He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall Stand here beside me, baby, in the crumblin' 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" Ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah, ha-ah [Pre-Chorus] He said, "I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war If you can tell me somethin' worth fightin' for" Oh, and I'm gonna buy this place, is what I said Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head [Chorus] Honey, all the movements you've started to make See me crumble and fall on my face And I know the mistakes that I made See it all disappear without trace And they call as they beckon you on They say, "Start as you mean to go on" [Post-Chorus] Start as you mean to go on [Verse 2] He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and see it go Stand here beside me, baby, watch the orange glow Some will laugh and some just sit and cry But you just sit down there and you wonder why" [Pre-Chorus] "So, I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war If you can tell me somethin' worth fightin' 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, oh [Chorus] Honey, all the movements you've started to make See me crumble and fall on my face And I know the mistakes that I made See it all disappear without trace And they call as they beckon you on They say, "Start as you mean to go on" [Post-Chorus] As you mean to go on As you mean to go on [Outro] So meet me by the bridge, oh, meet me by the lane When am I gonna see that pretty face again? A-meet me on the road, meet me where I said Blame it all upon a rush of blood to the head
