Stranger In The House (Live At Hollywood High, 1978)

Stranger In The House (Live At Hollywood High, 1978) - Elvis Costello & The Attractions

This never was one of the great romances

But I thought you'd always have those young girls eyes

But now they look in tired and bitter glances

At the ghost of a man who walks round in my disguise

I get the feeling that I don't belong here

But theres no welcome in the window anyway

And I look down for a number on my keychain

Cause it feels more like a hotel everyday

Theres a stranger in the house nobodys seen his face

But everybody says he's taken my place

Theres a stranger in the house no one will ever see

But everybody says he looks like me

And now you say youve got no expectations

But I know you also miss those carefree days

And for all the angry words that passed between us

You still don't understand me when I say

Theres a stranger in the house nobodys seen his face

But everybody says he's taken my place

Theres a stranger in the house no one will ever see

But everybody says he looks like me

Everybody says he looks like me

Everybody says he looks like me
