The Birds Will Still Be Singing 歌詞
The Birds Will Still Be Singing - Elvis Costello (埃爾維斯 科斯特洛)/Brodsky Quartet
Summertime withers as the sun descends
He wants to kiss you
Will you condescend
Before you wake and find a chill within your bones
Under a fine canopy of lover's dust and humourous bones
Banish all dismay
Extinguish every sorrow
Eternity stinks my darling
That's no joke
Don't waste your precious time pretending
You're heartbroken
There will be tears and candles
Pretty words to say
Spare me the lily-white lilly with the awful perfume of decay
Banish all dismay
Extinguish every sorrow
If I'm lost or I'm forgiven
The birds will still be singing
It's so hard to tear myself away
Even when you know it's over
It's too much to say
Banish all dismay
Extinguish every sorrow
If I'm lost or I'm forgiven
The birds will still be singing
