Sweet Pear

Sweet Pear - Elvis Costello (埃爾維斯 科斯特洛)

Sweet pear

Sweet pear

Those who say they love you

Would never dare

I'll watch out for you

I'll always be there

In the hour of your distress you need not fear

In all the world there's only one true love

And finding it's hard enough

I bless whatever's in the sky above

For bringing you to me

But there's a void

Without your kiss

I wake on the precipice above the abyss

And though the touch of your lips these fears dismiss

Make no mistake there is an ache I have to live with

Was my grip too lose my grip too strong

That made you want to run away

And now you're back where I pretend you belong

I wonder every night and day

How long

I swear

This is my prayer

'Til we're burned and scattered in the atmosphere

Or lost in the world

Across a crowded room

I am your stupid lover your wretched groom
