Ouch

(album: Maybe Not Tonight - 1999)

When I was a kid I skinned my knee
And not one tear came out of me
Decided right then I was just born tough
And nothing ever gonna ruffle my feathers

High school quaterback, football team
A revved up fine-tuned mean machine
And when I got sacked, I'd flash a grin
Saying "What's the matter boys, can't you do any better"
No pain, no gain, I couldn't get hurt
'Cause I didn't feel a thing
Then one day I saw your face
Now everything's changed

My heart's always hurting
My legs are barely working
Feels so good to kiss you on the couch
Sweet mama, your daughter's making my eyes water
And only one word comes out of my mouth
Ouch

Ache all over from your tender touch
You say my name and I get goosebumps
Well baby, this former man-of-steel is putty in your hands
And I love this feeling
Those eyes, that dress
Crying uncle, it's no contest
It's all your fault I fell in love
Now look what you've done

My heart's always hurting
My legs are barely working
Feels so good to kiss you on the couch
Sweet mama, your daughter's making my eyes water
And only one word comes out of my mouth
Ouch

My heart's always hurting
My legs are barely working
Feels so good to kiss you on the couch
Sweet mama, your daughter's making my eyes water
And only one word comes out of my mouth
Ouch
Ouch
Ouch

Oh baby, it hurt's so good
