ELVIS COSTELLO

ELVIS COSTELLO - The Comedians lyrics

rate me

I sat there alone upon the ferris wheel

A pastel-colored carriage in the air

I thought you'd leave me dangling for a little while

A silly twist upon a childish dare

Below I saw you whisper to another man

Who held the lever that could bring me down

He stopped the world from turning at your command

It's always something cruel when left to drown

Chorus

I can hardly hear the music from the carousel

The wind picks up, the carriage starts to sway

And one by one the lights go out, it's closing time

I see you take his hand and walk away

Walk away

They say that you are always the last to know

They say that all that glitters is not gold

It's not just that you're never coming back to me

It's the bitter way that I was told.

Chorus
