《She Handed Me a Mirror(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] She Handed Me a Mirror (Album Version) - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)

[00:00:15] She handed me a mirror

[00:00:21] That she had gazed upon

[00:00:27] The glass still held an image

[00:00:33] The glass still held an image

[00:00:40] But it was of a man

[00:00:44] I turned from the reflection

[00:00:50] To see who it might be

[00:00:56] Is that poor vanity

[00:01:00] Quite how she pictures me

[00:01:06] She handed me a mirror

[00:01:12] Rather than tell me "no"

[00:01:18] She let slip a handkerchief

[00:01:24] Gentle laughter flowed

[00:01:30] Just as her lips bestowed

[00:01:35] A dashing word like "brother"

[00:01:41] The crushing word like "friend"

[00:01:47] If there was no beginning

[00:01:52] How could this be the end

[00:01:57] She handed me a mirror

[00:02:04] So I could recognise

[00:02:10] The distance from my heart to hers

[00:02:16] The distance from my heart to hers

[00:02:23] The pity in her eyes

[00:02:27] She liked my pretty story

[00:02:33] I thanked her for her song

[00:02:39] And then I wrote a tale not very long to tell

[00:02:50] "You are much more than pretty You are beautiful "

[00:03:17] She handed me a mirror

[00:03:24] But I saw her instead

[00:03:30] She handed me a mirror

[00:03:37] She handed me a mirror

[00:03:43] And that is all she did
