Couldn't Call It Unexpected No 4 - Elvis Costello[00:00:01]

I saw a girl who'd found her consolation[00:00:13]

She said "One day my Prince of Peace will come"[00:00:19]

Above her head a portrait of her father[00:00:25]

The wilted favour that he gave her still fastened to the frame[00:00:31]

"They've got his bones and everything he owns[00:00:39]

I've got his name"[00:00:45]

Well you can laugh at this sentimental story[00:00:50]

But in time you'll have to make amends[00:00:57]

The sudden chill where lovers doubt their immortality[00:01:03]

As the clouds cover the sky the evening ends[00:01:10]

Describing a picture of eyes finally closing[00:01:16]

As you sometimes glimpse terrible faces in the fire[00:01:23]

We'll I'm the lucky goon[00:01:30]

Who composed this tune[00:01:34]

From birds arranged on the high wire[00:01:37]

Who on earth is tapping at the window [00:01:54]

Does that face still linger at the pane [00:02:00]

I saw you shiver though the room was like a furnace[00:02:07]

A shadow of regret across a young mother's face[00:02:13]

So toll the bell or rock the cradle[00:02:20]

Please don't let me fear anything I cannot explain[00:02:26]

I can't believe I'll never believe in anything again[00:02:34]
