《The Birds Will Still Be Singing》歌词

[00:00:00] The Birds Will Still Be Singing - Elvis Costello Brodsky Quartet

[00:00:10] Summertime withers as the sun descends

[00:00:19] He wants to kiss you

[00:00:21] Will you condescend

[00:00:27] Before you wake and find a chill within your bones

[00:00:35] Under a fine canopy of lover's dust and humourous bones

[00:00:43] Banish all dismay

[00:00:47] Extinguish every sorrow

[00:01:00] Eternity stinks my darling

[00:01:04] That's no joke

[00:01:07] Don't waste your precious time pretending

[00:01:11] You're heartbroken

[00:01:16] There will be tears and candles

[00:01:20] Pretty words to say

[00:01:24] Spare me the lily-white lilly with the awful perfume of decay

[00:01:32] Banish all dismay

[00:01:36] Extinguish every sorrow

[00:01:41] If I'm lost or I'm forgiven

[00:01:45] The birds will still be singing

[00:02:34] It's so hard to tear myself away

[00:02:43] Even when you know it's over

[00:02:51] It's too much to say

[00:03:13] Banish all dismay

[00:03:17] Extinguish every sorrow

[00:03:22] If I'm lost or I'm forgiven

[00:03:27] The birds will still be singing
