elvis costello - the comedians [demo] lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i sat there alone on the ferris wheel
i passed your coloured carriage in the air
i thought you’d leave me dangling for a minute or two
the silly twist upon a childish day

[verse 2]
below i saw you whispering to another man
who held the lever that could bring me down
he’d stop the world from turning at your command
it’s always something crueler laughter drowns

[chorus]
and i’m up while the dawn is breaking
even though my heart is aching
i should be drinking a toast to absent friends
instead of these comedians
[verse 3]
i can hardly hear the music from thе carousel
as the wind picks up the carriagе starts to sway
as one by one the lights go out, it’s closing time
i see you take his hand and walk away
walk away

[verse 4]
they say that you will always be the last to know
they say that all that glitters is not gold
it’s not just that you’re never comin’ back to me
it’s the bitter way that i was told

[chorus]
and i’m up while the dawn is breaking
even though my heart is aching
i should be drinking a toast to absent friends
instead of these comedians
