The Big Light - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)[00:00:00]
Written by:Declan MacManus[00:00:00]
Oh well I had a little feeling[00:00:10]
To have a big night[00:00:13]
And woke up feeling small[00:00:14]
And not so brave and not quite right[00:00:16]
I had to face the who am I[00:00:18]
And where is she and what did I do[00:00:19]
But worst of all I had to face the big light[00:00:21]
The big light came through my window[00:00:24]
And it opened up my eyelids[00:00:26]
And it snapped them up like[00:00:28]
Roller blinds and told me things that I did[00:00:29]
I can't face another day[00:00:31]
And night of good ideas and complications[00:00:33]
And I'm thankful that I didn't open[00:00:35]
Another bottle of inspiration[00:00:37]
When[00:00:41]
The hangover this morning had a personality[00:00:52]
And I cast my shattered mind[00:00:55]
Over selected memories[00:00:57]
I didn't even touch the light[00:00:59]
Switch so I knew I'd never see[00:01:00]
The haggard face that would be staring back at me[00:01:02]
The big light came through my window[00:01:06]
And it opened up my eyelids[00:01:07]
And it snapped them up like[00:01:09]
Roller blinds and told me things that I did[00:01:11]
I can't face another day[00:01:13]
And night of good ideas and complications[00:01:14]
And I'm thankful that I didn't open[00:01:16]
Another bottle of inspiration[00:01:18]
Well I had a little feeling to have a big time[00:01:46]
And I woke up to alarm bells[00:01:49]
Like a big church chime[00:01:51]
I had to face the who am I[00:01:53]
And who is she and what did I do[00:01:54]
But worst of all I had to face the big light[00:01:56]
The big light came through my window[00:02:00]
And it opened up my eyelids[00:02:01]
And it snapped them up like[00:02:03]
Roller blinds and told me things that I did[00:02:05]
I can't face another day[00:02:07]
And night of good ideas and complications[00:02:08]
And I'm thankful that I didn't open[00:02:10]
Another bottle of inspiration[00:02:12]
Oh well it's fine to go out and have a[00:02:16]
Big night[00:02:19]
But sooner or later you're got to face the big[00:02:19]
Light[00:02:22]
