《There’s A Story In Your Voice》歌词

[00:00:00] There's A Story In Your Voice - Elvis Costello

[00:00:08] Once upon another time

[00:00:11] If you had the need

[00:00:15] I'd step right in the shoes that you've been walking

[00:00:23] 'Cos someone put the hurt in you

[00:00:26] For every one to see

[00:00:30] And you only have to speak to tell your fortune

[00:00:37] There's a story in your voice

[00:00:41] Both by damage and by choice

[00:00:44] It tells of promises and pleasure

[00:00:48] And a tale of wine and woe

[00:00:52] The uneasy time to come

[00:00:57] And the long way 'round we go to get there

[00:01:04] Once you told me fairytales

[00:01:08] Everybody knows

[00:01:12] But I didn't care for their prediction

[00:01:20] Now you say you're leaving me

[00:01:23] And packing up your clothes

[00:01:27] I finally see you were a work of fiction

[00:01:34] There's a story in your walk

[00:01:38] Then you crumble just like chalk

[00:01:42] And I could say that I was sorry

[00:01:45] But I wouldn't mean it much

[00:01:49] There are pages I can't touch

[00:01:54] And something that's been torn out of this chapter

[00:02:02] Far away not far enough

[00:02:05] 'Cos I can still recall

[00:02:09] How it felt when I read that last sentence

[00:02:17] Now I go inside some rooms with Gideon in them all

[00:02:24] And hide myself from all hope of repentance

[00:02:31] There's a story in your eyes

[00:02:34] Cheap sunglasses might disguise

[00:02:39] But when the bedroom light reveals

[00:02:42] All that bravado and that fright

[00:02:46] That you cover up in spite

[00:02:50] Attempts to strip away this fabrication

[00:02:57] There's a story in your voice

[00:03:01] Both by damage and by choice

[00:03:05] It tells of promises and pleasure

[00:03:09] And a tale of wine and woe

[00:03:13] The uneasy time to come

[00:03:17] And the long way 'round we go to get there
