[Chorus]
He hit me
But it felt like a kiss
He hit me
But it didn't hurt me

[Verse 1]
He couldn't stand to hear me say
That I'd been with someone new
And when I told him I had been untrue

[Chorus]
He hit me
But it felt like a kiss
He hit me
But I knew he loved me

[Verse 2]
And if he didn't care for me
It would have never made him mad
But he kissed me
And I was glad

[Outro]
When he took me in his arms
With all the tenderness there is
When he kissed me
He made me his
