Costello's rock'n'roll comeback. Not bad...

Costello, Elvis : She

Costello, Elvis : She

This record is equivalent to the grisly trophies serial killers strip from their victims - kidneys for a nice fry-up, some pickled liver, a finger bone.

Elvis Costello - North Lyrics

Elvis Costello - You Left Me in the Dark Lyrics

See how the elements obey?
Eyes are blue, skies are gray
Nothing I'll do, will make you stay
I'm glad it will rain today

Elvis Costello - When Green Eyes Turn Blue Lyrics

Every single time it becomes too much
There's nothing I can say or I can touch
But the glory is, as it comes passing through
I know I will be there when green eyes turn blue

Elvis Costello - Can You Be True? Lyrics

Can you be true?
Can this possibly be real?
I knew quite suddenly
Do you sense how I feel?

Elvis Costello - Let Me Tell You About Her Lyrics

I wasn't very indiscreet and yet
That is a notion that I might as well forget
Friends look at me these days with fond surprise
But when I start to speak they roll their eyes

Elvis Costello - Still Lyrics

These few lines I'll devote
To a marvelous girl covered up with my coat
Pull it up to your chin
I'll hold you until the day will begin

More Elvis Costello - Still Lyrics

Elvis Costello - When It Sings Lyrics

All the words you say to me have music in them
All the sorrows and the joys like magnetism
And a selfish boy looks through a prism
And says what is but never asks what isn't

More Elvis Costello - When It Sings Lyrics

Elvis Costello - Fallen Lyrics

All the leaves are turning yellow, red and brown
Soon they'll be scattered as they tumble down
Although they may be swept up so invitingly
I never did what I was told

More Elvis Costello - Fallen Lyrics

Elvis Costello - You Turned to Me Lyrics

You turned to me and all at once
I knew I was betrayed
My eyes met yours just down the darkened path
Where both of us had strayed

More Elvis Costello - You Turned to Me Lyrics

Elvis Costello - When Did I Stop Dreaming? Lyrics

You appeared when I was lost in reverie
If this is not a dream it's my mistake
And now I lie in wait for dawn to break
I'm fairly sure I'm wide awake

More Elvis Costello - When Did I Stop Dreaming? Lyrics

Elvis Costello - Someone Took the Words Away Lyrics

Poor head can hardly move my lips for speaking
I said, "So what is this thing I can't explain?"
I blame all the things I feel but can't quite place
Perhaps they're written on my face

More Elvis Costello - Someone Took the Words Away Lyrics

Elvis Costello - I'm In The Mood Again Lyrics

Hail to the taxis they go where I go
Farewell the newspapers that know more than I know
Flung under a street lamp still burning at dawn
I'm in the mood again
