Elvis Costello - Starting to Come to Me слова песни
Its started to come to meYour new career would probably end like thisAll that professional lipstick pressed into an amateur kissFarewell to the studied lines and carefully broken heartsThe overpowering perfume and the glimpse of her garterMingling with the sweet smoldering scent of the martyrWell its starting to come to me (come to me, come to me)Starting to come to meSo you began to recognize the well-dressed man that everybody lovesIt started when you chopped off all the fingers of those pony skin glovesThen you cut a hole out where the lovelight used to shineYour tears of pleasure equal measure crocodile and brineYou try to laugh it off saying "i knew all the time...But its starting to come to me" (come to me, come to me)Starting to come to meSometimes you bring me down to play reluctant confidantYou say you may reward him if he gives you what you wantBut these are days to treasure and to holdThey are much too precious to be soldYoud probably play the pirate if you werent so busy digging up the goldNow you could tell he wanted you cause you almost taste it on his breathBut you always cheated life just like the bold dare-devil cheated deathIncidentally, late last night your understudy finally got what you deserveIn private shes seductive but in public shes prim, porcelain and nervousAfraid someone will recognize the shame in her eyesYouve still got your dignity or the next best disguiseYou never know when to say no and when to compromiseBut its starting to come to me (come to me, come to me)Starting to come to me (come to me, come to me)Starting to come to me
