He hit me, and it felt like a kiss
He hit me, but it didn't hurt me
He couldn't stand to hear me say
That I'd been with someone new
And when I told him I had been untrue
He hit me, and it felt like a kiss
He hit me, and I knew he loved me
If he didn't care for me
I could have never made him mad
But he hit me, and I was glad
He hit me, and it felt like a kiss
He hit me, and I knew he loved me
And I knew I loved him
And then he took me in his arms
With all the tenderness there is
And when he kissed me
He made me nice
