Knock You Down Songtext
von Keri Hilson

Not again
Oh, this ain′t supposed to happen to me
Keep rockin'
Oh, this ain′t supposed to happen to me

They say I move too quick, but we can't let this moment pass us
Let the hour glass pass right into ashes
Let the wind blow the ash right before my glasses
So I wrote this love letter right before my classes
How could a goddess ask someone that's only average for advice
OMG, you listen to that b-?
Whoa, is me, baby, this is tragic
′Cause we had it, we was magic

I never thought I′d be in love like this
When I look at you, my mind goes on a trip
Then you came in and knocked me on my face
Feels like I'm in a race, but I already won first place


I never thought I′d fall for you as hard as I did (as hard as I did, yeah)
You got me thinking 'bout our life, our house, and kids, yeah
Every morning I look at you and smile
′Cause boy, you came around, and you knocked me down, knocked me down

Sometimes love comes around (love comes around, love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up when it knocks you down, knocks you down
Sometimes love comes around
And it knocks you down
Just get back up when it knocks you down, knocks you down

I never thought I hear myself say (mm)
Y'all go ahead
I think I′m going to kick it with my girl today (kick it with my girl today)
I used to be commander-in-chief for my pimp ship flying high (flying high)
'Til I met this pretty little missile, who shot me out the sky (oh, shot me out the sky)

So now I'm crashing, don′t know how it happened
But I know it feels so damn good
Said if I could go back and make it happen faster
Don′t you know I would, baby, if I could

Miss independent to the fullest
The load never too much, she helping me pull it
She shot the bullet that ended that life (oh)
I swear to you, the pimp in me just died tonight, girl, sometimes love


Sometimes love comes around (love comes around, love comes around)
(Oh, it comes around), and it knocks you down
Just get back up when it knocks you down, (oh, when it) knocks you down
Sometimes love comes around (comes around)
And it knocks you down (oh)
Just get back up when it knocks you down, (when it) knocks you down (knocks you down)

Keep rockin', and keep knockin′
Whether you Louboutin it up or Reebokin'
You see the hate that they servin′ on a platter
So what we gonna have, dessert or disaster?

Tell me now can you it make past your Caspers
So we could finally fly off into NASA
You was always the cheerleader of my dreams
To seem to only date the head of football teams
And I was the class clown that always kept you laughing
We were never meant to be, baby, we just happened
I was flying, now I'm crashing
This is bad, real bad, Michael Jackson

So you gotta take the good with the bad, the happy and the sad
Or will you bring the better future then I had in the past
So, the good with the bad, the happy and the sad
Or will you bring the better future then I had in the past
So, the good with the bad, the happy and the sad
So, the good with the bad, the happy and the sad
So, the good with the bad, the happy and the sad
So, the good with the bad, the happy and the sad

Sometimes love comes around (love comes around, love comes around)
And it knocks you down
Just get back up when it knocks you down (get back up when it knocks you down), knocks you down
Sometimes love comes around (when love comes around) (comes around)
And it knocks you down (aye-aye, oh-oh, aye-aye, oh-oh)
Just get back up when it knocks you down, (when it) knocks you down (knocks you down)

Won′t see it coming when it happens (aye)
But when it happens you're gonna feel it, let me tell you now
You see, when love comes knocks you down (oh, when it knocks you down)
Won't see it coming when it happens (oh-oh)
But when it happens you′re gonna feel it, let me tell you now (tell you now)
You see, when love knocks you down
Yeah

We was magic
We was magic
Not again
Keep rockin′
