You Stole My Bell
Elvis Costello
Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
There is a place Underneath the staircase Where I keep the evidence Of what once would offer peace In a deep blue velvet box, filled with joy and pride Should I pick the locks? Should I peek inside? Can I stand the sight of those happy days? Should I strike a match, burn them all away? 'Cause you stole my bell and you broke my chime And the clock spins 'round but it won't keep time There are many lovely girls in this cold and loveless world But not one is the equal of you, heaven knows how much I love you But not one is the equal of you, heaven knows how much I love you So here we are But it's not quite like we thought Those things were priceless then Now I know, they can't be bought In a deep blue velvet box, fastened with a pin Should I lift the lid? Should I look within? Was it my last chance or my first mistake? Is it just a step that we'll never take? 'Cause you stole my bell and you broke my chime And the clock spins 'round but it won't keep time There are many lovely girls in this cold and loveless world But not one is the equal of you, heaven knows how much I love you But not one is the equal of you, heaven knows how much I love you But not one is the equal of you, heaven knows how much I love you
