歌词
Elvis Costello
Everyday I Write The Book
Dont tell me you dont know what love is
When youre old enough to know better
When you find strange hands in your sweater
When your dreamboat turns out to be a footnote
Im a man with a mission in two or three editions
And Im giving you a longing look
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday I write the book
Chapter One we didnt really get along
Chapter Two I think I fell in love with you
You said youd stand by me in the middle of Chapter Three
But you were up to your old tricks in Chapters Four, Five and Six
And Im giving you a longing look
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday I write the book
The way you walk
The way you talk, and try to kiss me, and laugh
In four or five paragraphs
All your compliments and your cutting remarks
Are captured here in my quotation marks
And Im giving you a longing look
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
[01:56]Everyday I write the book
Dont tell me you dont know the difference
Between a lover and a fighter
With my pen and my electric typewriter
Even in a perfect world where everyone was equal
Id still own the film rights and be working on the sequel
And Im giving you a longing look
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday I write the book
Everyday (everyday)
Everyday
Everyday i write the book
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday i write the book
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday
Everyday i write the book
Im giving you a longing look
Everyday i write the book
Im giving you a longing look
Everyday i write the book
Im giving you a longing look
Everyday i write the book
