Elvis Costello - Sweet Pear текст песни

Sweet pear, sweet pear

Those who say they love you would never dare

Ill watch out for you

Ill always be there

In the hour of distress you need not fear

In all the world theres only one true love

And finding its hard enough

I bless whatevers in the sky above

For bringing you to me

But theres a void without your kiss

I wake on the precipice above the abyss

And though the touch of your lips these fears dismiss

Make no mistake there is an ache I have to live with

Was my grip too lose, my grip too strong

That made you want to run away

And now youre back where I pretend you belong

I wonder every night and day

How long

I swear this is my prayer

til were burned and scattered in the atmosphere

Or lost in the world across a crowded room

I am your stupid lover, your wretched groom
